These are published minutes of annual sessions of the Ozark Association of Primitive Bap­tists, which consisted of member congregations in Dallas, Greene, Polk, Webster, and Wright counties in Missouri.  Minutes are available for meetings in 1904, 1906, 1907, 1908, 1909, 1910, 1913, 1914, 1915, 1917, 1918, 1919, 1920, 1921, 1922, 1923, 1924, and 1941.

 

These small booklets contain minutes of meetings, the Association’s articles of faith, and statistical tables of member congre­gations.  In 1904 the Ozark Association of Primitive Baptists had ten member congregations: Pisgah (in Wight County), Ozark (in Webster County), Round Prairie (in Dallas County), New Bethel (in Webster County), New Hope (in Dallas County), Fel­lowship (in Webster County), Harmony (in Polk County), Mount Olive (location unknown), Zion (in Greene County), and Indian Creek (location unknown).  By 1941 the number had been reduced to six: Zion, Harmony, Ozark, New Hope, New Bethel, and Pisgah. Round Prairie was by far the largest congregation in 1904, counting 116 members, while in 1941 the largest congregation was New Hope with just 59 members.
