These are two record books of the community bands of Marble Hill in Bollinger County, Missouri.  The records include constitutions, membership lists, minutes of meetings, and fi­nan­cial accounts of the Quartette String Band (1875), the Marble Hill Cornet Band (1876-1878), and the Marble Hill Silver Cornet Band (1887-1902).  Although this collection was ac­quired from two separate donors, the combined material forms a unified history of the Marble Hill bands.  The long asso­ciation of Dr. August Sander with the bands explains the continuity of the records.

 

 

Section 1: From the organization of the Quartette String Band in 1875 and the Marble Hill Cor­net Band in 1876 through 1878.

 

Section 2: Marble Hill Silver Cornet Band, 1887-1902, with a recapitulation of the years 1878-1887.  Several reorganizations of the Cornet Band are included in this section.
