Summary
  • This microfilm set contains most of the records of the American Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands' administration which was headquartered on Saipan and previously on Guam and Honolulu. The records document the full range of activities pursued by the Territorial administration. Subjects covered include budgets, finance, community development, communications, economic development, education, housing, immigration, land management, legal administration, political &​ social development, public health &​ safety, public works &​ transportation. While the majority of the records date from the 1940s onwards, the archives includes a number of records dating from earlier periods, which include land records, architectural drawings and other files.
Biography
  • During World War II the Caroline Islands, Marshall Islands and Northern Marianas were occupied by the US armed forces. In 1947 the United States was granted administrative responsibility for these islands under the terms of a United Nations Trusteeship. The US continued to administer these territories until 1982 when, under Compacts of Free Association, the Federated States of Micronesia (formerly the Caroline Islands, ie: Ponape, Yap, Truk and Palau) and the Republic of the Marshall Islands were formed.
