Identifier: 011-01-020

Scope and Contents

This series contains what is surely only a fragment of the administrative subject files of the Georgia State Treasurer. Among the great variety of records and subjects included are: miscellaneous correspondence; requests for advances on salaries and expenses; receipts; papers concerning investigations; requisitions for committee members and others; warrants for salaries and expenses; performance bonds; requests for payment; change bills for the Western and Atlantic Railroad; telegrams; audits of the treasurer's account; appointments to office; estate records concerning registered bonds; and bills outstanding. These records partially document the myriad duties falling on the state treasurer, including his service on several special investigating committees and his role in the building and operation of the state-owned Western and Atlantic Railroad.
