This collection comprises unbound materials from the C series of the USPG archives held at the Rhodes House Library, Oxford. The 1st 3 boxes (C/CRIMEA/1 - 3) consist primarily of correspondence from army chaplains in the Crimea, 1854 - 1856 to the Society in London, describing conditions in Saitan & Sebastopol. Attention is drawn to the work of the military hospitals, & the efforts of the nurses under F. Nightingale. Chaplaincy candidature papers are also included, detailing the careers of prospective army chaplains for the Crimea. Testimonials from important churchmen are often appended. The provision of a Crimea Memorial Church at Constantinople to commemorate those who had died in the war is also extensively described, with concomitant reports & plans, as well as lists of subscriptions. The records have been arranged under the geographical location of their origin, & subdivided by related subject. The 2nd 2 boxes (C/EUR/22 - 23) contain letters, reports, financial statements, etc., spanning the periods 1860 - 1923 & 1927 - 1948 respectively, & relating to Christ Church, Constantinople [i.e. Istanbul], Turkey, which originally formed part of the Anglican diocese of Gibraltar. It was erected & run by the Society in memory of the fallen during that conflict & also, after World War I, commemorating those soldiers from the British Empire who died in the Battle of Gallipoli, 1915 - 1916. Other correspondence relating to the Diocese of Gibraltar can be found in: The SPG & the Middle East & North Africa region.
