Interviews--North Carolina-Oregon
Series
Scope and Contents
From the Collection:
The Voices of American homemakers oral history project (1981-1983) consists of interviews with 196 women throughout the United States about homemaking in the first half of the twentieth century. The transcripts are housed in boxes one through five and have been arranged alphabetically by state. They were removed from the original three-ring binder format to the current box/folder arrangement, but were retained in original order. The first two folders in box one contain a master index to the collection and introductory materials which were completed and donated with the transcripts. The master index has been arranged by subject with reference to interviewee, state, and page number within each interview. In order to find a particular citation, one should locate the desired subject in the index, and note the interviewee name, state, and reference number. The name index begins on page twenty-seven, with box and folder references for interviewees. Folder thirteen in box five contains a collection of papers presented at the 1983 National Conference of Extension Homemaker's Council. The papers were compiled from extracts of the interviews.
