| Description |
Papers of the Presbyterian Church of England Women's Missionary Association, 1879-1961, comprising Home committee minutes and correspondence, 1907-1972; overseas correspondence and minutes, 1903-1958; and annual reports, 1937-1961. There are minutes of local missionary councils, both of the WMA and the Joint Councils; correspondence from missionaries in the field; papers of schools, hospitals and churches run by the missionaries and later taken over by local people. There are also journals and papers of individual WMA members such as Catherine Ricketts; Girls Auxiliary material; periodicals, publications and leaflets. There is a small amount of photographic material; and some papers relating to the internment of individual missionaries by the Japanese. There is also a series of material relating to the mission buildings, including plans. The papers should not be seen as referring just to the WMA as files include correspondence from male missionaries to the Foreign Missions Committee and the WMA, and many activities were carried out jointly. |
