Overview and metadata sections

Captain O. A. Luckenbach Camp No. 182 was active in Bethlehem, PA, in the mid twentieth century. There is no other information available on this Post.

Series I: Administrative Records: Series I consists of one bound volume of meeting minutes dating from December 7, 1936 to April 7, 1952 and one printed pamphlet that holds the Reports of the Relief Committee dating from January 1, 1940 to December 15, 1941.

The records were rough sorted and placed in archival boxes by board members and volunteers of the GAR Civil War Museum & Library in 2008. In 2009-2010 they received preliminary processing by Archival Consultant Jack McCarthy and Intern Megan Atkinson, working on a project funded by grants from the Pennsylvania Historical & Museum Commission and National Endowment for the Humanities. This finding aid is the result of that project. The grant funds allowed for only minimal processing and very little re-housing of the records; as noted above, the records require more thorough processing.

The finding aid created by McCarthy and Atkinson was converted to the EAD format in 2011-2012 as part of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania’s Hidden Collections Initiative for Pennsylvania Small Archival Repositories (HCI-PSAR), funded by a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
