- WPA Slave Narratives
Slave narratives are stories of surviving slaves told in their own words and ways. Unique, colorful, and authentic, these slave narratives provide a look at the culture of the South during slavery which heretofore had not been told. - African American Funeral Programs
The African American Funeral Programs from the Augusta-Richmond County Public Library System online collection consists of over one thousand funeral programs ranging from 1933 to 2008 (with the bulk of the collection beginning in the 1960s) from the Eula M. Ramsey Johnson Memorial Funeral Program Collection. A majority of the programs are from churches in Augusta, Georgia, and the surrounding area, with a few outliers in other states such as New York and Florida. The programs typically contain a photograph of the deceased, an obituary, a list of surviving relatives, and the order of service. The collection provides extensive genealogical information about the deceased, including birth and death dates, maiden names, names of relatives, past residences, and place of burial. Alongside this genealogical information, the obituaries provide a rich source of local history about African Americans. Many of the people included in this collection were prominent in their communities, and many were involved locally in the struggle for civil rights.

- Church Records of Old Ebenezer Church Georgia
Church Records of Old Ebenezer Church Georgia: Built in Effingham County, GA in 1767 – 69 by Lutheran Protestants who came to Georgia in 1734 after being exiled from Catholic Salzburg in Europe, the church is officially named Jerusalem Church. It stands on the site of a wooden building probably erected soon after the congregation moved from Old Ebenezer to New Ebenezer in 1738. During the Revolution the British used the Church as a hospital and stable and the metal swan on the belfry still bears a bullet hole. Though the town of Ebenezer no longer exists the Church has an active congregation of about 450 members. It’s original congregation came from St. Anna’s Lutheran Church in Augsburg, Germany. The Jerusalem Lutheran Church is the oldest surviving intact building in Georgia. This collection contains the baptismal, marriage and death records from Old Ebenezer Church dating from the years 1754-1781.

- The Dixon Hollingsworth Surname Cards Collection
The Hollingsworth Surname Card Collection of 3x5 cards contains names and information about families in Screven County, Georgia. Dixon Hollingsworth, and his parents, Clyde and Essie Hollingsworth, created this collection. They owned the local newspaper and were the local historians for the area. Both Dixon and Clyde Hollingsworth published books about the history of the area. This collection includes information they collected from numerous sources in many different states. Dixon Hollingsworth died in September 1994, so the collection contains material collected prior to that time. There are 15,374 cards and 63,589 names on the cards. You can type the first letter of the name and click on the down arrow and the list will start with that letter. When a name is chosen, a list of the cards with that name appears on the screen. The user can then choose a link to a card and an image of the card appears on the screen.
