Title: China Records Project Miscellaneous Personal Papers Collection, 1834-1973 (inclusive).

The papers include biographical information, correspondence, diaries and journals, writings, printed material, tape recordings, artifacts and maps. The medical, educational and evangelical work of both men and women missionaires in China is reflected in the material. Social issues such as foot binding, opium reform, education of women, and child labor are also touched upon. The material is particularly valuable for the descriptions of daily missionary life and work which it provides. Personal accounts of some political events such as the Boxer Rebellion in 1900 and the Communist takeover of 1950 are given. Included in the collection are the transcripts of interviews with 43 former China missionaries, conducted by the China Missionaries Oral History Project of the Claremont Graduate School, Claremont, California.

China Records Project Miscellaneous Personal Papers Collection, 1834-2002

Title: China Records Project Miscellaneous Personal Papers Collection, 1834-2002

The China Records Project Miscellaneous Personal Papers Collection is an open collection. It currently contains material from more than 325 individuals, primarily Protestant missionaries to China. The time period covered is approximately from 1834 to 1998. The China Records Project was initiated by the National Council of Churches of Christ in the U.S.A in 1968. The aim of the project was to insure the preservation of the personal records of former missionaries to China and to provide a central repository where these papers would be available to historians. The Yale Divinity School Library was chosen as this central repository in 1969 and has continued to solicit and accept China-related papers since that time.
