The Society’s records

Everything the Society’s own records say of George McPhail: the offices held, the standings conferred, and the awards won. Where the records are silent, so is this part of the page.

In memoriam · 1996

He assisted at many CSCL sales at the CNE and was the Society's Treasurer 1986-91 (the span the Spring 1996 newsletter gives, and the one the Society's records of his office bear out). His death is reported there as recent news, with no date; the notice is the archive's only source for it.

From Spring 1996, page 5.
