Picture 1.
The first string I used was the entire name, both handwritten and typed pieces. Mrs. Henry M. Robert Jr. is exactly what I searched for. The first hit for this search was for Wikipedia Daughters of the American Revolution. While interesting this did not produce the information I was looking for. The second string I used was the date typed at the top of the letter February 26 1939. Yahtzee! The first hit here was from the FDR Library and was what I would call a great hit and a very credible source. Although the 2nd link to come up from the 1st search (the name), was a dot gov site and was probably the best information.

The first string I used for this picture was "backround map arrested", unfortunately this didn't pan out with the first hit being a Nashville area crime map. The second string I used was right on. I used "background map ap newsfeatures" and the first hit was a direct link to the information about the picture. As far as the link being credible it was the library of congress's government website, so I would say that the information here would be authentic. In my opinion this was an easy search with a very credible result.

String one here was the name on the complaint J.F. Blake. The first hit from this search was the Montgomery Advertiser newspaper. It took some reading to get to the information I was seeking but it was there. The second string I used was the date, but typed out "december 1 1995". The first hit here was too a CNN article written in March of 2003. The article had no mention of the name on the complaint, but is definitely a credible site. The final string I used was "empire theater montgomery 1955" where the first hit was from Troy University and again had no mention of the name on the complaint. As all of these sites seem to have credibility and would easily let me determine the significance of this police report I would have to say that the first string and Montgomery Advertiser would be the most significant and credible source.

The last was the easiest, I used the string "february 10 1964" I used this first because it also had the vote pass numbers on it and seemed I suppose legitimate and important. The first hit took me to the senates official government site where I found complete and credible information. I also used the string "eighty eighth congress" which turned a first hit for wikipedia with the same info. It seems obvious to me that the credibility is stronger with the government website.
