Section VI: Missions to India
Part 1: India General, 1811-1815, and North India Mission, 1815-1881

21 reels of 35mm silver-halide positive microfilm

India had been the object of Evangelical ambitions since the 1790s. An attempt (led by William Wilberforce) to amend the East India Company's charter, ensuring it permitted missionaries access, was rejected in 1793. Some evangelicals did serve in India as Company employees, and a Corresponding Committee was set up in Calcutta in 1807. 1813 saw Wilberforce and his allies achieve success and over the next few years CMS missionaries began to arrive in India. The Committee enjoyed much greater latitude of action than similar boards in other mission areas, and relations between it and the CMS in London were often tense until the situation was regularised in the late 1820s.

The first CMS missionaries to North India reached Calcutta in 1816. The Culcutta Corresponding Committee controlled work in North India until 1878, when the Punjab stations were joined to the Sind station (which were previously managed by the Bombay committee). Further divisions in the next few decades illustrate both the scope of the missions as well as developing administrative priorities. A similar pattern can be found underlying the growth and splitting of the mission run by Corresponding Committees in Madras (founded 1818). The final area of operations was Cylon.

India was possibly the most prominent of all the mission fields; it impact on popular culture can easily be illustrated by the ambitions of St John Rivers in Jane Eyre. CMS missions initially began in Calcutta and Madras, and expansion (despite problems over recruitment, which necessitated the employment of German Lutherans) was swift. By 1910 there were some 416 missionaries stationed in India, the country having been divided into seven missionary regions:

  • Bengal and Bihar
  • Punjab and Sind
  • United Provinces
  • Central Provinces
  • Western India
  • South India
  • Travancore and Cochin
A census the following year revealed that the total size of the Protestant community was 1.5 million of which 333,000 were Anglicans. Such figures amply illustrate the success (and failure) of missionary societies throughout the sub-continent.

The CMS archive, published here contains detailed accounts of missionary activities throughout India. Topics covered include:

  • methods of evangelism
  • reports from stations and missionaries
  • financial and strategic planning
  • the use of education
  • relationships with the Anglican hierarchy and other Anglican and Protestant missionary groups
  • biographical and autobiographical material for both Indians and Europeans
Part 1 focuses on India General, 1811-1815 and the North India Mission, 1815-1881 (CMS headquarters were re-organised in the 1880's, explaining the split in dates in the first part). Part 2 continues with the North India Mission, 1815-1881. Parts 3 and 4 move on to look at the South India Mission for the years 1815-1884

One of the highlights of the collection is the detailed reports which were compiled by missionaries when they first arrived in a new area. They included geographical descriptions, noted on local flora and the inhabitants themselves, their backgrounds and allegiances, languages and religious customs. These reports, sometimes compiled by missionaries accompanying military surveys, are among the earliest European reports for many parts of India, from the Bengal-Nepal border (where Rev. Schroester travelled with Lt. Weston) to the south and the west of the country.

There are substantial amounts of local material (much of an ephemeral nature), including both manuscript and printed documents. Some of this local material includes reports published in the 1870s from Kashmir and Meerut. Such material is of great importance for scholars of both mission and empire, for investigating how British and CMS policies developed (and differed) towards India. Reports and papers detail the shifting opinions of missionaries on Indian religions and society. Insights can also be found into the impact of British rule on India.

The India section of the CMS archive is of primary importance for investigating the consequences of British rule in India, for both Indians and British. The archive enables detailed area studies as well as research into broader areas of policy and cultural assumptions. Due to the importance of India to British Imperial ambitions, the complex relationship between missionaries and colonial administrators can be traced through the detailed letters, papers and documents contained within this project.

N.B. Much material on India can also be found in Section II and III of the Church Missionary Society Archive (also published by Adam Matthew Publications). Due to the extent of mission stations and missionaries in India, material (both manuscript and printed) for the Society for Promoting Female Education and for the Church of England Zenana Missionary Society can be found in section II: Missions to Women and Section III: Central Records.

Business and Financial Papers African and Colonial Journals
The African Times and Orient Review 1912-1914, 1917-1918 and the African Colonizer,1840-1841

2 reels of 35 mm silver-halide positive microfilm Duse Mohammed Ali was one of the founders of Pan-Africanism. Born in 1866 he was the child of an Egyptian Army Officer and his Sudanese wife. He launched The African Times & Orient Review in 1912, a monthly journal covering art, commerce, politics and literature. It was to be a paper produced by Africans to reflect their opinions, desires and aims. Some of the topics covered include the First Universal Races Congress, reports from correspondents in Turkey, Egypt and Asia Minor and sections on African trade and commercial interests. All issues of the journal are reproduced in their entirety here.

The African Colonizer began as a weekly publication and was concerned with trade, European colonial power blocks and the need for a greater dissemination of information. There is much criticism of the British colonial government and frequent demands for improved and more civilised conditions.

Treasury Papers
Series One: Papers of the Economic Section, 1941-1961 (Public Record Office Class T 230) Part 3: T 230/74-109
9 reels of 35mm silver-halide positive microfilm plus guide to Parts 2-4

Following on sequentially from Parts 1 and 2, Parts 3 and 4 of this project cover Treasury Class T 230, piece numbers 74-145. Produced within approximately the same period as Parts 1 and 2 (1940-1948) these files address many of the major economic questions of the day.

There is material covering such subjects as:
International monetary policy
The Bretton Woods Conference
The release of doctors from the armed forces to aid the civilian population
Economic Surveys for 1946, 1947 and 1948
Long-term Economic Survey 1948-1951
Employment policy in the UK
Tripartite talks on Germany
Reconstruction Committee
Investment
Nationalisation of the iron and steel industry
Mutual Aid
National debt
National income and expenditure
National Insurance
Plans for transferring certain industries to public ownership
OEEC long-term planning

Within these files, can be found a wealth of documents addressing, not only general economic conditions and plans, but also specific issues and problems crucial to Britain's wartime economy and post-war development. There are particularly good individual Preview and Review Papers by leading economists focusing on such topics as:

Raw material imports - R W B Clarke
National income planning and full employment - R C Tress
Electricity programme 1946/7-1950/1 - M F W Hemming
Manpower developments by the end of 1948 - A Reeder
Marshall Aid
Investment programmes - C T Saunders
Coal - M F W Hemming
Planning estimates of the national income - C T Saunders
Prospects for UK shipping and shipbuilding - P Chantler

By studying these papers, together with the memoranda, minutes, correspondence, forecasts, statistics and comments of the Economic Section, scholars will gain a unique insight into the influence, views and theories of the government economists who played such an important role in the shaping of post-war Britain.

From T 230/102, the following extract shows how the Economic Section saw their role as transcending merely financial matters and touching upon all aspects of British life, including social engineering:

"Mr Chester has prepared the accompanying papers on certain further aspects of the social security plan. On the question of Children's allowances, perhaps I might make the following general observations.
It is clear, from the most cursory examination of the finance of the Beveridge Scheme, that children's allowances are among the most flexible elements. While it is extremely difficult to economise in many other directions, here economies can be made without obvious dislocation of the remainder.
This, I feel is unfortunate. For on broad social grounds, if there exists a margin for increased expenditure, the claims of expenditure on childhood and youth come very high up in the list. Extra money spent on pensions will no doubt have a direct effect on the happiness of the recipients. But it will do nothing to increase productivity; it will do nothing to assure the future of the race. Moreover, so far as I can see, its effects on the incentive to work are not likely to be positive.
Children's allowances, on the other hand, do all these things - in greater or less degree. By increasing the income of the family man in work, and thereby increasing the margin between work income and relief, they increase the incentive not to remain idle. By increasing provision for child welfare, they raise the standard of health, and hence the productivity of the working population of the future. By making provision for large families they may do something to arrest the tendency to a decline in the birth rate."

Part 3 includes material on the Tripartite talks on Germany, Location of industry, Reconstruction Committee, Working parties on investment, Nationalisation of the iron and steel industry, Mutual Aid and Anglo-US post-war economic co-operation, Economic proposals on the National Debt, National income and expenditure, proposed reform and development of Social Insurance and Allied Services, Preparation of plans for transferring certain industries to public ownership, and OEEC long term planning.
