Scope and Content Note

This series includes cottage placement and transfer information of boys at the institution. Information in the registers includes name, date of entry, original cottage placement, and the cottage to which transferred (if applicable). Some entries also contain the initials of the person who approved the transfer. In addition to cottage placements and transfers, school program placements and transfers are also occasionally included. Elementary school, high school, carpentry, auto mechanics, and agriculture are among the school programs referenced. Later registers focus almost exclusively on cottage placements; all students found in these volumes are new unless noted with a red "T" showing re-admit or cottage transfer.
