This series only contains audio discs. They are very thin and a green color—the technical term is unknown at this time. While the data on these discs is unknown, it is possible that some historical information about the Southern Convention may be recorded, due to some of the handwritten labels on the discs.

This is one of the smallest series in the collection, containing only 1 Book. The class book belonged to J.O. Atkinson, and shows the record of student grades in various subjects during the fall of 1912 and the spring of 1913. These grades were of the students that Dr. Atkinson taught while he was a member of the faculty at Elon College (2:1).

The Correspondence series contains primarily letters either to or from J.O. Atkinson. The content within these letters varies and covers many topics including the Mission Board of the Southern Convention; Southern Convention Woman's Conference and events; North Carolina Woman's Conference of Congregational Christian Churches; publications pertaining to the Christian faith; schedules and information about church conferences and meetings; and genealogical information about the Atkinson family in North Carolina.

Of particular interest to genealogists are a few letters pertaining to the Atkinson family in North Carolina. There are letters that Dr. Atkinson wrote to his sister about family members (3:7), as well as others writing to inquire about the Atkinson family (3:13).

Another small series in this collection contains Lists of various conference members. Specifically, there is a List of the members of the Eastern Virginia Woman's Conference and of the Valley Virginia Woman's Conference (4:1, 4:3). The only other List in this series appears to be a listing of particular churches in various counties in North Carolina and Virginia, as well as representatives from each church (4:2). There is no information on these Lists that explains what the content represents (4:2).

The Literary Production series is by far the largest in the collection, containing a variety of informational materials. The items that take up most of the space in this series are J.O. Atkinson's class notes from when he attended Harvard University in 1892 and 1893 (5:4-5:12). Within these notebooks are handwritten notes taken by Dr. Atkinson while studying theology, philosophy, and religion at Harvard. The notes represent the structure of how classes were taught in the early 1890s, as well as the content that was taught by professors at a prestigious school.

There are three items that may be of particular interest to Elon College. One is a dedication speech, in which the Board of Trustees of the Christian Orphanage (also known as Elon Homes for Children) dedicated a bronze tablet that was to be placed on the side of the Johnston Hall building. The bronze tablet honored Charles Johnston, who served as the Orphanage's superintendent for many years (5:2). Also of interest is a sermon that Dr. Atkinson gave at Elon College in 1933 (5:40). Dr. Atkinson made a note on his sermon papers that states "large congregation: white and colored" (5:40). Additionally, Dr. Atkinson gave an informal speech at commencement in 1900 and a copy of the speech is included in this series (5:1.1).

This series also contains essays written by J.O. Atkinson that pertain to the importance of mission work at home and abroad (5:14, 5:15, 5:18, 5:19). Moreover, another large part of this series contains sermons written by J.O. Atkinson that were given at various churches, conferences, and/or meetings (5:30-5:41).

This series only includes Minutes from the Board Meeting of the Woman's Board of the Southern Convention of Congregational Christian Churches that met in the Suffolk Christian Church (Suffolk, VA) on August 27, 1942 (6:1).

The items in this series include Photographs, negatives, and postcards. Many of the Photographs are black and white, and show multiple churches and unidentified buildings (7:1-7:6). The groups of pictures that offer the most information primarily include people from various churches, missionary groups, and conventions (7:7). Almost all of the pictures within this folder are identified (7:7). Of particular interest to Elon are four postcards depicting scenes from where the Christian Orphanage used to stand (7:9). Some of the pictures include the orphans, while others include the dairy farm and surrounding landscape (7:9).

The Printed Material series contains a diversity of materials. Primarily, this series includes brochures, bulletins, and programs relating to missionary work and the North Carolina Woman's Conference of Congregational Christian Churches (8:1-8:3, 8:13, 8:15). Specifically relating to J.O. Atkinson are newspaper clippings that offer rich biographical information (8:6-8:8, 8:11). Additionally, there is a family tree that was constructed which directly pertains to the Atkinson family in North Carolina, as well as J.O. Atkinson (8:5).
