This collection contains thirty-five note cards with information about the Bonner family of Carrollton, Georgia. They were created by Ruth Rooks Sutton for a paper in high school in 1956-1957. She sent them in a letter to her aunt, Ila Rooks, who then sent them to Charles Beard at the University of West Georgia. Ila Rooks was related to James C. Bonner through her mother's side of the family. Both of these letters are in the collection as well.
