Let σ(U) denote the number of automorphisms of a model U of power ω1. We derive a necessary and sufficient condition in terms of trees for the existence of an U with $\omega_1 < \sigma(\mathfrak{U}) < 2^{\omega_1}$. We study the sufficiency of some conditions for σ(U) = 2ω1 . These conditions are analogous to conditions studied by D. Kueker in connection with countable models.
