Nevis Historical and Conservation Society Manuscripts and Imprints

In 2019 and 2022 a team of Hamilton College staff and students traveled to the island of Nevis, birthplace of our namesake Alexander Hamilton. The team worked with staff members from the Nevis Historical and Conservation Society (NHCS) to digitize records in fragile physical condition and/or of significant historical value, including: Minutes of the Nevis Council, Baptismal Records from Anglican Churches, and the only known printed copy of the Laws of Nevis (ca. 1773). These materials are presented here for research purposes. All intellectual property rights to the images and information contained therein reside with the NHCS.
