As the PC(USA) General Assembly begins in Detroit, we'd like to take a minute to reminisce about previous GAs.

There is a lot of great content on the internet documenting past Assemblies. Please enjoy this survey--albeit incomplete.

Here are the oldest GA minutes from the Internet Archive:

Extracts from the minutes of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America, from A.D. 1789 to A.D. 1802, inclusive, with a copious index (1803)
Minutes of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America (A.D. 1789 to A.D. 1820, inclusive)

Please let us know if you find any pictures of yourself, or if you know of any other great electronic sources of GA history.
