South Carolina Medical Association Records 1869-1977.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/732343127

The South Carolina Medical Association (SCMA) Records, 1869 to 1977, consist of 22 folders and 2 volumes of records documenting the business and interests of the association. Many of the files seem to be those collected by Dr. Joseph I. Waring, editor of the Journal, Charleston physician, and medical historian. The records include minutes, membership lists, committee files, photographs, meeting programs, and documentation in support of a history of the SCMA written by Dr. Joseph I. Waring. Also included are materials about the Journal of the South Carolina Medical Association, though these are decidedly incomplete. The notebook, 1942-43, was compiled by Dr. Julian Price and contains documentation of routine association business, as well as documentation pertaining to the Associations activities during and in support of World War II. The two bound volumes are on loan from the SCMA. The first volume contains handwritten entries from the reorganization meeting in 1869, including constitution and bylaws. The rest of the volume contains handwritten minutes and, later, published copies of the proceedings of the association, which were pasted into the ledger. The second volume of records consists almost entirely of pages from the published proceedings, which were pasted into the ledger, however there are marginalia and other handwritten notations.
