The Floyd G. Snelson scrapbook documents Snelson's religious and political activities from 1929-1930. Clippings from West Indian and American newspapers refer to his appointment as rector to the Collymore Rock Church in Barbados in 1929, his official visits to many churches and other places in the West Indies, his activities on behalf of Collymore, speeches, and other notable activities and events which had occurred in Barbados. The scrapbook also contains the address that Snelson delivered to the Negro Progress Convention (NPC) in Guyana, as well as those of other principals that were printed in the local newspaper. Handwritten letters to him commend him on his speeches and activities on behalf of the A.M.E. Church. Several newspaper articles authored by Snelson about the Royal Geographical Society also appear in the scrapbook.
