Introduction

These records were created by the Territorial Auxiliary Forces Association^ of Caernarfonshire and Anglesey between 1908 and 1968. They include both minute books and financial records.

The minute books relate to the General Meetings & various committee meetings which were held by the Caernarfonshire T & A.F.A ; the Anglesey T & A.F.A and later the joint Anglesey & Caernarfonshire T & A.F.A. Included amongst the minutes of the Caernarfonshire T & A.F.A & the Anglesey T & A.F.A are the minutes of several joint committees upon which members of both associations sat. These include: Anglesey & Caernarfonshire T.A Associations Audit Board Meetings (later re-named the General Purposes & Finance Committee when the two associations merged their accounts in 1943); Anglesey & Caernarfonshire County Cadet Committee Meetings (replaced in May 1947 by the Pre-services Sub Committee) and the Combined General Purposes and Finance Committees of Territorial Army Associations of Anglesey, Caernarfonshire, Denbighshire & Flintshire (created when the four county Territorial Army Associations were briefly amalgamated under one Secretariat in 1946). Some minute books are indexed either by subject, committee or by the dates when meetings were held.

Included amongst the financial records of the Anglesey & Caernarfonshire T & A.F.A are details relating to the Merioneth & Montgomeryshire T & A.F.A. Contents
