New York State Court of Chancery Index to Enrolled Decrees, In Re Papers and Other Case Files

Numeric by circuit, then alphabetic by last name of complainant or subject, then numeric by file number.

This series is an alphabetical index by last name of complainant or subject of a petition to Enrolled Decrees, In Re Papers, and other Case Files. All entries contain the names of the complainant and defendant (for In Re cases only the name of the subject of the petition). The early entries in each alphabetical section of the indices to the 2nd, 3rd, 7th, and 8th Circuits also contain the name of the complainant's solicitor and the date the records in a case were filed. Each volume in this series indexes one circuit. Second Circuit cases involving railroads are organized in a separate section after "R". Similarly, cases involving banks and churches are each organized into separate categories after "B" and "C" in the indices to the 5th, 6th, and 8th Circuits.

Information for each entry includes: complainant or petitioner, defendant, type (petition, decree, order, subpoena, bill, appearance for defendant, affidavit, etc.), file date, and names of solicitor and counselor.
