Important parts of Logan City history will now be part of the State Library of Queensland’s collection.
Logan City Historical Museum handed over the documents at a ceremony last week.
Items included company ledger records of the Southern Queensland (Cooperative) Dairy Company Ltd., universally known as the Kingston Butter Factory.
Museum representatives said that after 30 years as part of the Logan museum’s collection, the transfer to the state library would ensure their preservation be secured for future generations.
Two members of prominent families associated with the formation of the Butter Factory in 1906, Mr Robin Kleinschmidt and Mr Lee Wendt, were able to make the presentation of the 1906 minutes to library representatives.
Electronic copies of the company ledgers were also presented.
