Journal of the Belfast Branch Aid Society, 1863-1882


This is a handwritten journal.  The opening page (page 3) contains the following information:

"During the summer of 1861 a company of young ladies met one afternoon or evening of each week, for the purpose of rendering such assistance as was considered necessary for the relief of our sick and wounded soldiers.  The work consisted of making such hospital garments as were needed, rolling bandages, scraping lint, making shoe[s], &c &c.  This company continued their labors until the summer of 1863 without any regularly organised Society, when it was proposed to form themselves into an association.  This proposal meeting with the unanimous vote of the company present, an association was accordingly formed..."

Scattered among the annual listings of members of the Society are records of the marriages of its members. These records contain the following marriages from 1863 to 1882:
