Sub-Group IV. Collection Accrual
|
Date: |
1883-1987 |
Extent: |
3 boxes |
Physical Access: |
Most of the papers from this section are extremely brittle. Handle with care. |
Scope of Sub-group IV: |
Conference Records deal mostly with Conference property, primarily farms. Conference business manager D.H. Thomas features throughout. The Church Records are from congregations that either left the denomination, or closed outright. The bulk date range for this series mirrors the changes surrounding the formation of the United Church of Christ in 1957. The Department of Missions records are primarily applications for grants from churches; some churches dominate whole folders. |
Arrangement: |
This material was added in 2014 and has three distinct series. Much of the material here are continuations from the original deposit and follow alphabetical order where applicable. · Series A. Iowa Conference Records · Series B. Church Records · Series C. Department of Missions |
