Office of the Secretary Records, 1833-1998

1833-1998

The records of the Office of the Secretary document the duties and functions of the office beginning with the creation of the office in 1899. The records also include documents prior to the organization of the Office of the Secretary. The majority of these records are located in the historical file.

The records also reflect the gradual loss of power and redistribution of power after the office reached its nadir of power in 1960.
