Description

<p>This paper examines the handover of village office documents under the municipal government system by comparing the 1903 handover list of Sunagawa Village, Kitatama District, Tokyo, with that of Uonashi Village,Higashiuwa District, Ehime Prefecture. Five points are noted here: The two have the following in common:（1）They each had two separate handover lists, one from the village mayor and one from the treasurer,（2）Although their survival rate was comparatively high, the number of early modern era documents is small. The differences between the two are as follows,（3）While a document storage period schedule was not employed in Sunagawa Village, such a period was employed in Uonashi Village,（4）Although in Sunagawa Village, the succession of the village mayor reflected the documentation format of the handover list and the district government office played a strong guiding role, the intervention of the district government office was minimal in Uonashi Village,（5）While many family register­related documents and documents predating the municipal government system were included on the handover list in Sunagawa Village, these documents were rarely on the Uonashi Village list.</p>
