Description

High‑Resolution TIFF Collection: New Haven County Superior Court Divorce Case – Marks vs. Levi and Hope

Overview

This collection comprises four high‑resolution TIFF images of court documents from a New Haven County Superior Court divorce proceeding involving parties named Marks, Levi, and Hope. The files are part of the Connecticut State Library’s “New Haven County Superior Court” (NHSC) record group 3 and are indexed under the “NHSC BAAI Cases Papers Subject” field, which catalogs legal records related to Black, African American, and Indigenous history. The collection is stored in the “HighResolutionTIFF_Copies” directory and is presented in English.

Background

The NHSC collection is a digitized record of New Haven County court filings. The BAAI project, funded by the National Heritage Preservation Council, focuses on retrieving and describing court records that involve African American and Indigenous individuals. The “NHSC BAAI Cases Papers Subject” index is a controlled‑term field that links each case file to subject headings such as “Divorce,” “Legal Documents,” and “African American History.” The Connecticut State Library hosts the digital files and provides access through its archival portal.

Contents

  • RG003NHSCBAAIPSDivorceMarksLeviHope001.tif – 28 MB, high‑resolution scan of the initial docket or complaint.
  • RG003NHSCBAAIPSDivorceMarksLeviHope002.tif – 28 MB, likely a response or summons.
  • RG003NHSCBAAIPSDivorceMarksLeviHope003.tif – 53 MB, a larger page, possibly a judgment or order.
  • RG003NHSCBAAIPSDivorceMarksLeviHope004.tif – 53 MB, concluding document or affidavit.

Each image is a faithful, high‑resolution reproduction of the original paper record, suitable for scholarly examination.

Scope

The collection documents a single divorce case from the New Haven County Superior Court and is limited to the four TIFF files listed above. It covers the legal proceedings, parties, and court actions relevant to the case but does not include ancillary materials such as oral testimony, photographs, or related case files. The collection is geographically bound to New Haven County, Connecticut, and thematically focused on divorce law and African American history within the broader BAAI archival program.
