ARCHIVO DEL CUERPO DEL ESTADO MAYOR. 
(ARCHIVE OF THE GENERAL STAFF.) 
This archive was created by a law of Jan. 24, 1879, and most of the contents 
are of subsequent dates. The documents are arranged in expedientes under 
three chief classes: Campaigns, Personal, and Impersonal. An alphabetical 
index is kept for each class. 
1. CAMPANAS. 
(Campaigns.) 
The expedientes of this division are confined to two classes: 
(a) Campaigns against the Yaquis, 1885-1889; 1890-1897; 1899-1901 ; 
1902 to date. 
(b) The Yucatan Campaign, 1899-1904. 
2. PERSONAL. 
In this division are filed expedientes containing the personal records of the 
higher officers, down to the rank of sub-teniente, since 1879. In addition there 
are a few expedientes of noted personages of earlier times. They can readily 
be found by consulting the alphabetical indice, under the names concerned. 
A reference under “ U. No. 66” indicates that the expediente of General José 
Urrea is in the Archivo del Departamento de Infanteria. The only expediente 
ee Pea class of which I took note was that of Santa Anna, which is given 
elow: 
“ Expediente del General Antonio Lépez de Santa Anna.” 
Some 2500 sheets of original matter relating to various phases of Santa 
Anna’s career, from 1810 to 1884. 
The cuadernos are given here in the order in which they occur in the bundle, 
but the materials of each are arranged chronologically, regardless of the 
order of the file. 
The principal items are the following: 
“Un cuaderno sacado de la causa que instruyé el Gran Jurado de la 
Camara de diputados al Gral. Santa Anna.”’ Some 100 ff. 
Letters of Santa Anna to the minister of war concerning his taking 
command at Vera Cruz (Sept. 5) and the union of the political 
and military authority (Oct. 31). 1822.
