W. Eddie Morris Collection

 

Rev. W. Eddie Morris served the church as Superintendent of the North Carolina Conference. He published The Vine and the Branches. Among his enduring legacies is the unique collection of original IPHC materials. It is the single best, personal collection of its kind. The following are highlights of materials available at the IPHC Archives and Research Center. This report was submitted by Dr. Daniel Woods who prepared the materials in the home of Sister Daisy Morris. We are indeed grateful to Sister Morris for this generous contribution.
