Section B: Post Records Finding Aid
This online finding aid has been set up to assist researchers find records classified under Section B (Post Records). The HBCA has records for 494 North American posts. Search Keystone for many of the record series found in Section B, now described by post.
The records themselves are not available on this website; to access them you will have to order microfilm via the Microfilm Loan Program, read published collections of records, or visit the HBCA.
What follows here is a reference tool that will allow you to find:
- what records for each post are kept at the HBCA, and for which years, with descriptions of the types of post records available; and
- how to access them—location codes and microfilm numbers.
Records are listed by type and volume number, referenced against the microfilm reels on which they are available (if they have been microfilmed).
