Dick Halsey is a Rochester-area genealogist and historian who was contacted in 1993 by journalist Eileen Welsome of the Albuquerque Tribune for assistance in researching the individuals who received plutonium injections in Rochester at Strong Hospital in 1945 and 1946. The collection consists of newspaper extracts, both from her work and from Rochester-area coverage of these largely unknown experiments, and a concluding reportin which Halsey both documents his role in the project and pays individual tribute to the victims of the tests. Materials in the collection date between 1975 and 2025, with the bulk dating from 1993 to 1999.
