Archive Project
The Martins Bank Archive Project is collecting together as many images and items relating to Martins Bank as possible. The collection is accessible on line, with interested parties emailing requests for information or images, via the archive website. The archive will be kept complete, and eventually offered to a UK museum. The archive is a completely not-for-profit venture, concerned only with preserving the history of Martins Bank, its staff and artifacts.

Famous quotes containing the words archive and/or project:
“To a historian libraries are food, shelter, and even muse. They are of two kinds: the library of published material, books, pamphlets, periodicals, and the archive of unpublished papers and documents.”
—Barbara Tuchman (1912–1989)
“In 1862 the congregation of the church forwarded the church bell to General Beauregard to be melted into cannon, “hoping that its gentle tones, that have so often called us to the House of God, may be transmuted into war’s resounding rhyme to repel the ruthless invader from the beautiful land God, in his goodness, has given us.””
—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
