Kristina,
I looked in "Records Management 7th Edition" to find how they would say to index these. See Pages 59-61, Rules 10A, federal government and 10B, state and local governments. You first index the government name (U S Govt or name of state or local government) then "the most distinctive name of the department . . . ." This is how I would do it, based on these rules:
1. UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT TREASURY DEPARTMENT INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE
2. DALLAS PARKS DEPARTMENT (ignore "Texas")
3. LEON COUNTY PUBLIC WELFARE DEPARTMENT (even if this were "Department of Public Welfare")
I hope this helps one of you with your argument. The book's rules are based on ARMA's seven Simplified Filing Standard Rules, but differ slightly. Where are you taking this class?

Subject: Government/Municipality names in filing
Hey all- I need a little help regarding gov't and municipality names and filing order. I understand that anything federal the first three identifiers are United States Government but with state and local how does that work? We were given the following three in a test (which I bombed) and I want to see how you would classify them and the rules.
1. Internal Revenue Service
Treasury Department
United States Government
2. Parks Department
Dallas, Texas
3. Leon County Public Welfare Department
Tallahasse, Florida
The instructions were to identify the key unit, second, third and fourth units and then place in alphabetical order. Can you help me on this as I am in a debate with my instructor and can't find any definitive answers.
Thanks,
Kristina
