What rural women's group nas preserveu
the history of' the farms, buildings and
places of interest in their communities so
.that the present and future citizens of
Canada will know of the hardships and hap-
piness of rural Canada?
In 1936, Lady Tweedsmuir, wife of the
then governor general of Canada, herself 'a
devoted Women's Institute member in
England,spoke at the Athens Women's In-
stitute branch in 'Leeds, East District and
stressed the need for preserving the in-
teresting history of Canadian people, the
daces, customs and activities of' a, develop-
ing land. The Federated Women's Institute
of Ontario seized the opportunity andfrom
there, the Tweedsmuir Histories as they
have now become known are part of the
work that the Women's Institute branches
throughout Canada have been doing for all
Canadians.
Among the topics covered in these books
are the geography and topography of the
area, municipal government, farming in all
its aspects, homes,. education, trade and
commerce, recreation, complete histories
of individual farmsand families, the chur-
ches and their organizations, ' schools,
libraries, industries past and present and
anything special about the district.
Altogether the community history is a comm
prehensive, factual collection of historical
data and treasured pictures of a local com-
munity provided by the Women's Institute
members, of the people, for the people of the
locality.
The Federated Women's Institutes of
Canada have received the Award of Merit
from the American Association for local
history, for initiating the .Tweedsmuir.
Histories and the Certificate of Merit for
their contribution to local history in Canada.
The Women's Institutes have put is long
hours to produce these histories of their
communities. Some branches have publish-
ed their histories while others have
n icrofilmed their histories and these can be'
seen at all local libraries.
Each year the Tweedsmuir History
Curators of the London . Area have a
workshop to update their skills. This year it
was at Wallacetown, in Elgin West. Atten-
ding from–Huron West was Alice Porter, Ef-
fie Yeo and .Jean Lobb, all of Goderieh
Township. .
The Women's Institutes of the London
Area are proud to be pre�rving the history
of the rural communities for present and
future Canadians. No other group is doing it
in such an organized way. Without a past
you can not have.a future.
