Julius K. Hunter and Friends African American Research Collection
The Julius K. Hunter and Friends African American Research Collection (JKH Collection), established in 2000, features African American genealogical resources in print and on microfilm and microfiche. The JKH Collection was established through the efforts of Mr. Julius K. Hunter in collaboration with the St. Louis Genealogical Society. In addition to his personal contributions, Mr. Hunter sought donations from corporate and individual friends. To recognize and honor Mr. Hunter's vision, St. Louis County Library established the Julius K. Hunter & Friends African American Research Collection. This collection continues to grow through funds from the library, the society, and Mr. Hunter and other friends of the collection.
