Admin History/Bio

The original FJPT Board of Trustees membership was set at forty-five, with fifteen serving at a time and fifteen being replaced annually. With the passage of time, and especially after 1929, new board members became harder to find, while remaining members rarely attended the occasional scheduled meetings. By the early 1930s, finding a quorum became virtually impossible, and a twelve-member Board of Management reporting to the Executive Committee was constituted to assume the responsibilities of the Board of Trustees. A small nominating sub-committee was utilized to select members of the Board of Trustees.

Scope and Content

Series consists of two sub-series. Sub-series 1 contains minutes, correspondence and reports of meeting of the Board from 1919 to 1925. Sub-series 2 contains Minutes of the Nominations Sub-committee of the Board from 1935 and 1936.
