The Society of United Fishermen (SUF) is a society founded in 1862 by Rev. George Gardener, a
Church of England clergyman. The fraternal organisation provided fellowship and an established support
system for its members at a time when very few services were available to Newfoundland's fishermen and their
families. In 1874 the SUF No.2 was established in Scilly Cove (renamed Winterton in 1912). The collection also
contains documents produced by the SUF Ladies Council starting in 1950.
