I am relatively new too, so these questions are really helpful. Thanks everyone!

Hello Lauretta,
Ethan's reply came through while I was composing mine, but here it is:
It looks like you need to move the <c02> elements so that they are
inside the <c01> tags: all the <c__> levels should be nested.
Here's the Library of Congress EAD Tag Library page for <c02>:
http://www.loc.gov/ead/tglib/elements/c02.html
I'm also a (relative) newcomer to EAD, I've found the Tag Library "May
contain" and "May occur within" lists valuable for learning the
structure. Usually when the parser tells me it was "expecting"
something else, it means I've got the right tags in the wrong location
and I need to carefully review which tags are allowed to appear inside
others. (Occasionally it means instead that I've got an unclosed tag.)
