- W1520378530 abstract "Public record archivists in Ohio should be grateful for Donald Ratcliffe's painstaking search for the missing presidential election returns for the first forty years of statehood. He has done a masterful job in delineating and unraveling the history of these records. His diligence obviously benefitted his research, Ohio archivists, and the state's electoral history as offered statistically by the secretary of state.

Such factors and conditions contributed mightily to the loss of Ohio's state and local records. That is archival reality. What is surprising, given over a century of neglect of public records in Ohio, is that so many records have survived. Under the circumstances that influenced the establishing of a state archives in Ohio, Mr. Ratcliffe and many, many other researchers should be thankful that records are available. A little archival history may be relevant here. In 1904 the state took its first steps to improve record keeping and preservation, but this legislation hardly established an archival or records management program.
