MORROW — The National Archives has many items in its holdings through its nationwide network of regional offices.
There’s the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution in Washington, D.C. There’s the national collection of World War II draft cards in St. Louis, Mo. Immigration records are scattered across the network of regional offices depending on where a person entered the United States.
