Scope and Contents

This series consists of minutes and reports of the Brooklyn Division and of many of the Division's predecessors. The minutes trace the histories of the Brooklyn City Tract Society, the Brooklyn City Mission and Tract Society, the Brooklyn City Mission Society, the Brooklyn Church and Mission Federation, and the Brooklyn Division of the Protestant Council of Churches. These minutes, taken either on leaves of paper or in ledgers, detail the structural composition of these organizations. Detailed here is the business aspect of each organization, including financial concerns, elections of officers, and structural changes such as amendments to the bylaws. Minute books document many of the transformations that occurred within various organizations over a period of over 100 years that led to the creation of the Brooklyn Division.
