Bibliography
Series from Record Group 210: Records of the War Relocation Authority. The data file contains some obvious typographical and data entry errors, such as misspellings of names. At least ten records are either blank or have information that is unintelligible. At least six records contain information that is apparently part of a data copying routine used at some point in the history of the file and accidentally included in the file. The 16 records were removed in the AAD version of the file. The punch card records in the series "Evacuee Summary Data Cards ("Locator Index"), 1942-46" (ARC Identifier 1055737) contain some corrections and additional information that are not in the data file. In general, the file does not contain records for persons born in the relocation camps. However, there are some records of persons born in 1942.
