Personnel records, 1869-1962.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/82280479

This series consists of a variety of personnel records created at Willard Asylum for the Insane (later Willard State Hospital). Two later volumes (1925-1962) are divided into sections for personnel appointments, resignations, promotions and changes, and deaths. Information for each employee is listed in columnar form and includes name; position; date; salary; date notice sent; and remarks. A volume entitled "Letters Received and Answered From The State Wide Pension System" (1937-1945) includes copies of cover letters of hospital employees submitting applications for membership in the state retirement system; applications for change of beneficiaries; letters concerning contribution rates; letters concerning disability benefit payments; requests to make payment to receive credit for prior service; and other correspondence concerning rules for membership, contributions, and benefits. A small, undated, ruled book, apparently listing employee identification numbers, is contained in this series. It shows consecutive, noncontinuous, seven-digit, stamped numbers and handwritten names, sometimes with "adm" in parentheses following the name.
