NATIONAL ARCHIVES: On 16 July 1985 the resources of the National <br />Archives, Chet C. Hollifield Federal Building, Laguna Niguel, California <br />were examined. The census schedules for the years 1960, 1910 and 1920 <br />were most helpful in establishing the developmental history of the pro- <br />ject area. No direct information regarding structures was obtained, but <br />general locations Gould be surmised from addresses given in the census <br />data. <br />FIELD SURVEY: On 22, 24 and 25 July 1985 the information which had <br />been determined through agency and library study was field checked. All <br />addresses along Bristol Street in the project area were verified, all of <br />the structures with potential for historical preservation were visited and <br />measurements and photographs made. In addition, all open areas along the <br />street and several areas of active construction excavation were examined <br />for any evidence of archaeological deposition. No such deposition was <br />found and it was noted that the subsurface in the project area appears to <br />be primarily recent alluvial deposits. <br />OTHER RESOURCES: During the course of this survey many additional <br />printed resources were utilized and many people were contacted. Many of <br />the printed resources will be cited in the following history of the pro - <br />ject area.
