Title: ASSOCIATION FOR EMPLOYMENT OF THE DESTITUTE AND TRUANT POOR

Date(s): 1866-1869

Level of description: Collection

Extent: 0.15 linear metres

Name of creator(s): Association for Employment of the Destitute and Truant Poor

CONTEXT

Administrative/Biographical history:

Further research might perhaps establish links with other philanthropic Societies of the time, but the Association does not seem to be recorded in London Charities, 1871-72.

CONTENT

Scope and content/abstract:

Minute book of the Association for Employment of the Destitute and Truant Poor. The minute book, A/EDT/1, appears to be the first of a series from the remainder of which it has been divorced. From the papers, A/EDT/3-5, addressed to or written by E.C. Bellamy, the Secretary of the Association, it seems that his resignation was accepted in January 1869, but that he did not return the volume (and possibly others) to the Association as requested.
