Administrative HistoryAccording to the minutes and newsletters of the Local History Section an Oral History Project was started 1971-1972. The member who was running the project resigned from the Society in 1981. By 1984, the project was still looking for volunteers to continue the work, and it probable that it was wound up around this time.
