| Description | Detailed minutes of the Society's meetings from its founding in 1900, including claims made to the Society for benefits funds by injured Members and bereaved families of deceased Members (both those deceased of natural and of accidental causes), the decisions made thereon by the committee, and the amounts paid to claimants.
Other features of interest: several newspaper cuttings reporting the works of the Aberdeen Steam Fishers' Provident Society and early transcriptions of Annual Meeting minutes; oppostion to the Society from certain Union members; accounts of accidental deaths of fishermen on whose behalf relatives were making claims.
Minutes commence at the back of the book from March 1900, then from May 1900 at the front of the book. |
