Processed Manuscript and Photograph Collections
The Texas State Archives holds the papers and other documents of a number of individuals and organizations. Some of these manuscript and photograph collections are processed and described in finding aids. This list is alphabetical by the name of the individual or the organization. Printed finding aids are available in the Archives search room in the named volumes. Finding aids available online may be accessed by this list directly, or you can go to TARO (Texas Archival Resources Online).
The Prints and Photographs Collection at TSLAC research guide includes additional information about finding prints and photographs within State Archives collections.
Not all holdings of the State Archives are processed. If you do not find what you are looking for, please contact our reference staff at 512-463-5455 or Archives Information.
Finding aids with links to TARO can be keyword-searched using TARO's simple search. This keyword search can be limited to TSLAC finding aids or include finding aids of all TARO member repositories. The Search option on the main menu leads to Advanced search, where several fields can be searched in combination. These searches will also include our Processed State and Local Records online TARO finding aids.
Finding aids that have been newly added or revised in the last 90 days are also listed at Archives: Finding Aids (New & Revised).
