Society of the Pioneers of Union Colony of Colorado, 1895-1983 and undated
Scope and Contents
While the organization's official name is the Society of the Pioneers of Union Colony of Colorado, it also went by a shorter form: the Society of Union Colony Pioneers. It was formed of the original colonists and their descendants and met annually and held an annual banquet and celebration. Most of the materials in this subseries relate to the big celebrations held by the Society for the fortieth and fiftieth anniversaries of the Colony's establishment. The most significant item, however, is the Society's minute book, which is continuous from its establishment in 1895 up through 1930. The book also contains clippings related to pioneers. The materials are arranged alphabetically by folder title.
