This collection consists of a record book of missionary efforts by the High Street Presbyterian Church in cooperation with the First German Church, a record book for the Church's Sunday School, and four scrapbooks compiled by a long-standing member of the church containing numerous materials interfiled. These materials range in date from 1852 to 1950, and include Sunday school roll books, brochures, photographs, manuals, financial reports, lists of congregation members, notes on church history, service books, newspaper clippings and other miscellany. The materials document the founding members of the church, its finances over the years, the various church groups hosted by High Street, the social and fundraising events organized by these groups, the biographies of some of the prominent members of the congregation, and many of the services and sermons delivered throughout the history of the church.
