Does anyone know how I might attain a full roster of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors? I tried their website but it is most definitely cut short. It has maybe a 1/4 of all members, historically.

That looks like a full list to me.  I thought you said it was only 1/4 of the members historically?

Perhaps it is the full list of National Board of Governors, in which case I should rephrase my question:

Does anyone know how to attain a total roster of the Executives of the Federal Reserve? The list provided by Gero gives the National Governors but isn't all inclusive? I'm not sure on the terminology for the remaining executives, but the list is not a comprehensive federal reserve roster. For example: the board of governors for the New York Federal Reserve Bank (provided by the late Antony Sutton) in the late 1910's was as follows-

Class A

William Woodward / Robert Treman / Franklin Locke

Class B

Charles Stone / William Boyce Thompson / L. R. Palmer

Class C

Pierre Jay / George F. Peabody / William Laurence Saunders

 

None of the above are listed in the provided links. I'm not sure technically on the names of the positions of these men, only that they were "in charge" of the Federal Reserve NY, but if anyone knew where to find a total roster, it would be helpful. And JJ, you didn't think I said it was a quarter, you know I did ;).

Thank you Gero, but I tried that and they only go back to the year 2000 for the NYFRB and not even that far back with the other ones.

THERE it is. Thanks much. Check this one out:

http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/docs/historical/frbny/1919_frb_newyork.pdf

Look at all those names...

Took a little while to figure out where the annual reports where, but there they are.

EDIT: Though, it's a shame that the only ones they release are from 1919-1935. There must be a complete set out there somewhere, right?

From the same site you may download "The first and second banks of the United States" which contains the charter of the first and second bank of the United States, and get the answer to your question regarding the first bank

Much obliged pardner, at first your site looked like it was designed by a crazy person but there is some excellent material on there.
