Family History
Nanine Irwin Hilliard Greene organized photographs, family documents, her own narratives, and transcriptions or photocopied sections of published histories into 37 volumes of family history. She photocopied and distributed to family members and also placed some of the volumes at the University of Louisville. Working from 1987 until 2001 Ms. Greene sometimes reconsidered or discovered new material so would revise or renumber the books. Inconsistencies may therefore exist between copies held by different family members and even within some of the copies at the University of Louisville. The list below is copied from a book list compiled by Ms. Greene and included in the front of some of her later books.
