Clackmannan and District Band
1991-
Article in Brass Band News August 1887 about Alva Rifle Volunteers states that James Jenkins took the band from 1876 and then lists the prizes they had won up to 1887. The first time that Alva TOWN appears is at Alloa Contest in May 1892 when the Volunteer band was also there. Up to that date Brass Band News just shows ALVA whenever the band is mentioned. This would appear to refer to the Volunteer band.
