The (Carmen) C. Louise Cross papers are arranged in six series: correspondence (1971-1974), organizational records (1972), reports (1972), ephemera (1972), subject files (bulk 1970-1974), and news clippings (1971-1973). Subject files relate to environmental issues, particularly strip mining, and the Constitutional Convention make up the bulk of the collection. While some of the correspondence relates to Cross’ work on the Natural Resources and Agricultural Committee, much of it contains suggestions from constituents about other constitutional issues. Correspondence is arranged by subject, mostly relating to Cross’ work during the Constitutional Convention, and consists mainly of constituent concerns and suggestions. The organizational records series contains information about the Constitutional Convention that was authored by Cross and the other delegates. The reports and ephemera series each contain only a few items, and the clippings series contains mostly information about environmental issues related to coal mining.
