<td>Persons researching the Civilian Conservation Corps may want to visit the <a href="http://www.cccalumni.org/">National Association of the Civilian Conservation Corps Alumni</a> web site; of particular interest to researchers is an article about<a href="http://www.cccalumni.org/guidelines.html">researching CCC Records.</a> The article contains the following advice for obtaining CCC personnel files:</p>
<p>“All personnel files are still held by the federal government. The enrollee or the enrollee&#8217;s next of kin may request discharge papers. Discharge papers are the best source to find the company and camps the enrollee was assigned to (see address below).</p>
<p>Other information, including camp and company reports, reside in the<a href="http://www.archives.gov/"> National Archives</a>. To date these items are not indexed, but are available for study at the National Archives in Washington, D.C.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Request discharge papers at</span></p>
<p><em>National Archives and Records Administration (NARA)</em></p>
<p><em>National Personnel Records Center</em></p>
<p><em> Civilian Personnel Records 111 Winnebago Street</em></p>
<p><em>St. Louis, MO 63118”</em></p>
<p>The web site also maintains a list of all CCC Camps across the country, including camps in <a href="http://www.cccalumni.org/states/missouri1.html">Missouri</a>, and NACCCA maintains a <a href="http://www.cccalumni.org/museum.html">CCC museum</a> at <a href="http://www.co.st-louis.mo.us/parks/j-b.html">Jefferson Barracks County Park</a> St. Louis.</p>
<p>The Local History and Genealogy Department maintains an Information File about the CCC entitled “Works Progress Administration”, and a book, “Roosevelt&#8217;s forest army: a history of the Civilian Conservation Corps, 1933-1942”, may be found in the <a href="http://coolcat.org/search~S1/d?SEARCH=Civilian+Conservation+Corps">library catalog</a>.</td>
