description Images taken by or collected by the Eddys during their service in the (Wesleyan) Methodist Missionary Society Gold Coast District. Includes images of them, of education establishments they worked at along with their colleagues and students (notably at Wesley College, Kumasi, and Winneba Training College), church members, the coronation of Prempeh II - King of the Ashanti, the golden stool as well as more generic images of Ashanti and neigbouring areas. This series has some commercial images including postcards produced by the Methodist Book Depot, Cape Coast, Gold Coast [Ghana].
scb_arrangement Photographs received in some disorder. Where groups of photographs were together and they clearly relate to each other then those groupings of images have been retained. Otherwise photographs arranged as best as possible in the files listed here, broadly in chronological order. With regard to leaves which were once part of a photograph album these have been placed together as best as possible to try to recreate said albums. However the albums are incomplete and the original order of each album is not known.
