The Families of Pan Am 103/Lockerbie was founded shortly after the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland that claimed the lives of 270 people. The group included 160 families of the victims, as well as three American families of victims of the French UTA bombing. Under the guidance of chairman Paul Hudson, father of Pan Am Flight 103 victim Melina Kristina Hudson, the group sought to establish an airline security system, release warnings of potential threats to passengers, and bring to justice all individuals and groups involved with the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103.
The Families of Pan Am 103/Lockerbie Collection contains materials produced by the group Families of Pan Am 103/Lockerbie, which were intended for distribution to its members as well as other individuals and organizations. The collection is composed of three series:
Correspondence - subject files consists of a range of materials and is divided primarily by subject matter. The majority of the series is correspondence produced and distributed internally within the group, both for general members and the executive board. It also includes materials sent to and received by various government offices, the press, and other outside individuals, such as non-member victims’ families. Additionally, the series includes materials related to the group's advocacy related to aviation safety and anti-terrorism legislation, as well as corporate donation requests and contributions.
Publications consists of a copy of the Book of Remembrance produced by the group on the occasion of the first anniversary of the tragedy, as well as newsletters.
Records consists of materials for internal recordkeeping and operation of the group. This includes materials such as meeting minutes, agendas, and treasurer reports.
