Scope and Content Note
More specifically, the collection consists of but documents. It is unknown how this very miscellaneous grouping came about. Since it contains an 1930 letter from an officer of the church to the Flushing Historical Society, it is possible that perhaps these documents were once part of the Society's collections. This cannot be proven, however.
The collection contains the following:
The Church's Library Catalogue (and probably late 1890s or very early 1900s)
The Order of Services for a special anniversary held in 1897
Program for cornerstone laying ceremonies held in 1930
Several sheets (in manuscript) of treasurer's reports, said reports probably being submitted by the Woman's Auxiliary of the Church (dated ca. 1907-1910)
Annual report (in manuscript) of the Woman's Auxiliary (dated 1910)
Two clippings from the "St. George's Sword and Shield", said clippings containing brief reports issued by the Woman's Auxiliary (dated 1898-1899)
