0011169Weymouth Massachusetts. Good with no dust jacket. Hardcover. On offer is a pair of club meeting minutes covering a total of 24 years of the Ever Ready Guild a womens charity club that was initiated in 1928 at the East Weymouth Congregational Church in Weymouth Massachusetts 15 miles south of Boston. These minute books cover the periods of 1934-1944 and 1950-1964. Newspaper records between the 1930s-1960s show that as well as the Weymouth guild there were Ever Ready Guilds operating out of churches in Ohio Illinois Maine Indiana Delaware Nebraska and Pennsylvania. In the 1936-1937 Annual Report Guild secretary Katherine Wright discusses their general activities: .to promote the spiritual and social life of the young women of the church most of our members are active in the Sunday School and the Choir we donate to the basket at Christmas time which Mr. Newton distributes also the Red Cross the Pilgrim association we contribute our time to the LSU and also to the fair and we pledge $125 to our Church which we earn in various ways Dec 1936. These minute books provide a remarkable look into the impressive structure and organization of a 100% women-led long-running charitable club. The record-keeping is impeccable with each meeting being recorded in intimate detail and the names of members the executive officers their activities and finances being meticulously kept. The guilds activities represent a deep dive into the social fabric of the time from the interactions among guild members to the many locations they would visit and how they would allocate their funds. From a genealogy perspective these books include the names and addresses of hundreds of Weymouth and area women born in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Each meetings minutes are long and detailed so excerpts only give a general sense of the type of content: .Treasurer reported a balance of $39.84. Ethel Sylvester reported on new members. Ruth Newton reported that the Norwegian Glee Club would not be available until fall. Louise Williams reported that $40.60 was realized on the rummage sale. The president asked that a note of thanks be sent to Mr. Reidy who kindly allowed us the use of his vacant store. The sewing for the hospital was turned in to Helen Tirrell and she gave out dish towels to be hemmed May 14 1940. .Motions made and seconded the Guild pay $1.20 for a square in the Social Union quilt. Plans for the Xmas party to be held Dec 28 Each member to bring a 10 cent gift also a gift for our mystery palls to the Christmas party Nov 23 1943. .Thelma Chalmers informed us that the Lincoln Ensemble Choir from Brockton would be at our church This is a colored choir and very well worth hearing. It was decided to have a miscellaneous sale on Feb 14th at the home of Ruth Burrill each member to bring two articles to the value of 50 cents Berdice Gibson was welcomed as a member of the Guild Jan 21 1956. As mentioned there are hundreds of womens names recorded in these books representing members over the years. Some members seem to have been lifers active in the guild from 1934 through the 1960s. A tiny sampling of the many women referenced include: S. Evelyn Lindquist 1896-1977 Ebba Wise 1898-1984 Cora Shores 1906-1969 Mollie Wrin 1903-1995 Marion Fulton 1907-1998 Katherine Wright 1897-1971 Maud Averill 1903-1987 Gladys Robinson 1902-1978 Hazel Haley 1904-1982 Doris Briggs 1905-1995 Olive Briggs 1900-1989 Winnifred Blanchard 1917-1989 Meredith Murch 1917-1980 Beryl Wentworth 1903-1983 among many others. This pair of manuscripts would be an excellent addition to a collection related to the Boston area Christian charities womens social clubs or women in leadership positions. It would be an exceedingly handy tool for one interested in Massachusetts genealogy or history in general. The books measure 10.5x8 inches and 9.5x8 inches respectively. They are both in overall good condition with normal age wear particularly with a peeling and cracking spine on the earlier book. Pages are all in tact. Both books are about 95% complete. The 1934-1944 book contains nearly 298 pages of manuscript minutes members lists and financial recordings while the 1950-1964 book contains nearly 295 pages of the same.

19360001992LYNCHBURG VIRGINIA VA THOMASVILLE NORTH CAROLINA. Good. 1936. On offer is a super fascinating manuscript relic of early Harley-Davidson motorcycle history being a 1936 original diary handwritten by the 22 year old J. Carson Little as evidenced by his personal address label "J. Carson Little "The Motorcycle Man" 3124 Campbell Av. Lynchburg VA 24501." There's another address inside that shows him living at Thomasville North Carolina. He was known as "The Motorcycle Man" because of his renown as a Harley Davidson dealer which he did for over 47 years. Only 22 years old at the writing the entire diary reflects whole life being centered around Harley-Davidson motorcycles. One online site dedicated to him provides: "J. Carson Little was the Harley dealer in Lynchburg Virginia for many many years .his incredible collection of Harley literature he had saved throughout the years. His two car garage has a fully finished upstairs room that was a Harley Museum. We learn that Mr Little used to hand out flyers regarding a noted trip to the Rose Bowl. "Hello. The following is a brief description of why I am in your town. "In 1938 Carson and a buddy rode Carson's brand new 1938 Harley from Thomasville North Carolina to the Rose Bowl in Pasadena California and home again. He sold the bike in 1948 but started looking for it in 1958. It had passed through 13 owners but on the 20th anniversary of his 1938 trip he found it again. Carson and his son rode back to the Rose Bowl in 1963 the 25th anniversary of his original trip. Of course he rode the same motorcycle as he had done in 1938. He then decided to keep going back every five years "just to keep in practice". 1968 - 30th anniversary. 1973 - 35th. 1978 - 40th. 1983 - 45th and once more in 1988 for the 50th Anniversary. Same man - same motorcycle - same trip J. Carson Little "The Motorcycle Man""Dave Hennessey. The diary is full. Here are some snippets: 1936 "I fixed up my 1925 Harley Davidson.
