New York Yearly Meeting Tercentenary Oral History Project

The Oral History Project, part of the Tercentenary Committee, includes a July 1992 overview of participants deposited with NYYM by Nancy Sorel. That participants list includes well over 100 names, but the Friends Historical Library received approximately 80 transcripts and 40 audiocassettes. It is not clear from the files if all 120+ participants were interviewed.

The list of transcripts is below; names with an asterisk include an audiocassette recording. An item-level accounting of the interviewee, interviewer, date, and location is available in the repository.
