INTRODUCTION
This index is to Missionary Tidings, the official publication of the Christian Woman's Board of Missions. Missionary Tidings was published from May, 1883 to December, 1919. It was merged into World Call published by the United Christian Missionary Society when the Christian Woman's Board of Missions was merged into the United Christian Missionary Society.
Included in this index are subjects and authors in one alphabet, except that personal names are listed before places and organizations.
i.e. Williams, (Mrs. W.)
Williams, Alexander
WILLIAMS, ALEXANDER
Williams, William
WILLIAMS, ARKANSAS
Subjects are indicated by all upper case letters while authors are in lower case. The entries are listed chronologically as they appeared in the periodical.
When using this index one should look at variant spellings of names. Unless the compiler was certain of the correct spelling of the name, it is listed under the spelling appearing in the periodical.
i.e. Allan Wirick
Allen Wyrick
When known, the complete information about the person is indicated. This information includes: surname, given names, maiden name, year of birth-year of death, (spouse's name). If a woman's given name is unknown, her spouse's name alone is given. If initials alone were given after the title "Mrs." and it is not known whether the initials are of the woman or her spouse, the parentheses will include (Mrs. A. A.). If it is known that the name listed after the title "Mrs." is the spouse's name, the parentheses include the spouse's name (married to Alan A.). If it is known that the initials are those of the woman no "Mrs." is listed.
This index will be kept in electronic form at the Disciples of Christ Historical Society, so it is possible to make corrections. If a user of this index can give a person's full name, corrections of spellings, married status of an individual, or any other information, please communicate that information to the Historical Society.
