These 6 ledgers contain handwritten minutes of the Nathaniel P. Lyon Post No. 5, for the period from 3 January 1903 through January 1949. They also contain newspaper clippings and other printed materials relating to the Post's activities during that time. Many of the clippings are obituaries of Boulder pioneers who were members of the Post, so these volumes are a good source of biographical information for early Boulder.
