Custodial history

Materials were likely collected by regional United Church staff and/or volunteers, between 1925 and 1986 -- for reference use, as they are not original records. Their original provenance is unclear but they may have been accumulated by early Saskatchewan Conference (United Church) archivists and/or their Saskatchewan Synod (Presbyterian) predecessors.

Scope and content

The collection consists of primarily textual items, published by the Presbyterian Church in Canada. Contents include published Acts and Proceedings (with minutes of the General Assembly, reports, etc.), materials related to the Committee on Church Union and the Presbyterian Church Association, as well as a range of other documents and publications about Church Union, especially the Presbyterian debates on that topic.
