This series contains mostly financial files generated by the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. There are also some files from the Methodist Episcopal Church and the Methodist Protestant Church. After merger in 1939 corporations created by the three former denominations were often kept by the Methodist Church rather than going through the legal requirements of re-definition. That is why there were financial files relating to the three denominations still in existence after 1940. These files deal primarily with issues of finance. Topics such as bank, property, insurance, litigation, foreign properties and annuities are covered in this series.
