You may want to look at the NPS site for their Harpers Ferry Center.  They have some basic information on completing a Historic Furnishings Report.

  Kate,

Do a search on GOOGLE Search Engine, and type in "historic furnishing report" * it comes up
with good examples.

Hello all,

I am faced with the daunting task of completing a historic furnishings report that was begun by my predecessor, and I am wondering if anyone had any advice for me. My specific concerns include the scope of the report, the amount of background material that has been included, and the accepted method of citation of sources in these reports. Anyone who can help, please contact me off-list. Thanks!
