content: Unbound applications of freedmen for rations, 1868, are arranged alphabetically by initial letter of the surname of the individual. Most of the applications are on a printed form, which gives the name of the landowner, the name of the freedman, the number of acres of land rented, the location of the land, and the names and ages of the people in the freedman's family.
