An introduction
“PROVINCIAL PRIDE”
was a publication by the Otago Early Settlers Association for the years 1955 to 1974. These records are for 1956 to 1972 but the years 1955, 1973, 1974 are missing.
It contained the annual report and balance sheet of the Otago Early Settlers Association and also articles of interest in the early development of the province.
Here is a list of enrolments and life memberships for the years published and, some others from the earlier years. An index of the articles of interest contained is included and some of these have been extracted and can be found on the data base.
The original copies are in a fragile state, having not been stored in a controlled atmosphere, and handling them is not recommended.
