Overview

This historical document, ""Liste générale des membres fondateurs et souscripteurs de la Colonie de Mettray depuis sa fondation,"" provides a comprehensive list of the founding members and subscribers to the Mettray Penal Colony from its inception. Covering the years 1839 to 1856, it details collective donations made during the same period. This record offers valuable insight into the financial and social support behind one of France's pioneering institutions in penal reform. The document sheds light on the individuals and organizations that contributed to the establishment and maintenance of Mettray, a colony that aimed to rehabilitate young offenders through agricultural labor and moral education. It is an essential resource for researchers interested in the history of penology, social reform movements in 19th-century France, and the development of alternative approaches to incarceration. The ""Liste générale"" provides a unique perspective on the network of philanthropists and reformers who shaped the landscape of social welfare during this era.
