The Lucknow Sentinel, 1991-02-20, Page 3WawanoshWest look£Jornrnittee sets publishing deadline ` lay Me is. N w that the grant money has been made available t° the History Bo k Crtmmittee of West Wawanosh deadlines have been tentatively set for the publishing of the t wnshiphis +pry book. The race is on to get research material completed and drafts out - ►> the public so that they can partici- pate. While the target date for print ing is 18 months away, committee' members feel there is still a great deal of material to be dug up, writ- ten, ritten, and told about in order to make this first township history compila- tion complete. At the last meeting members reviewed what is expected of them as outlined in the New Horizons directors' handbooks which were part of the grant parcel: Marion Zinn passed out a sample family history and reviewed with the rest of the members what they wanted to see in the township his- tory book. This particular family started with a generation in England and the second sreneratinn to Canada with only two finally end- ing up in West Wawanosh. merited that i include all facets of family history would be too detailed for what is needed for the township history book. Both researchers'and family historians are encouraged to remember that this project is con- cerned mainly with the history +f West Wawanosh. Anyone researching further into their own family history would be Fame than welcome to look at the material gathered by the committee including material not used in this book. Another challenge facing the committee is to create a style guide which would standardize short forms and offer some consistency in spelling for both typists and proof readers to refer to. The `committee is looking for someone to research local farm organizations both past and present. Anyone interesting in filling this position or haying information to offer please contact chairman Eileen Hanna 526-7251 or Marion Zinn 528-3710. The next meeting of the committee is Feb. 26, 8 p.m. at the West Wawanosh Township office.
