The H. Edwin Young Papers document Young's tenure as president of the Southern Baptist Convention from 1992 to 1994 and consist primarily of correspondence. The subject files include articles, reports, and printed materials in addition to correspondences. Topics include the ongoing effort to solidify conservative control over Southern Baptist agencies and institutions as represented in the firing of Russell Dilday as president of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and efforts to redefine the relationship between the Woman's Missionary Union and the SBC. The most prominent subject in the collection, comprising 2.5 linear feet of correspondence, reports, and publications, is the issue of freemasonry and its compatability with Christian principles and Baptist doctrine.
