SUMMARY:Birmingham: Oral History at The Hive
DESCRIPTION:Oral History at The Hive\nThe Hive is jointly home to Worcester Records Office and The University of Worcester. \nMaggie Tohill our speaker is an archivist with the Worcestershire Archive and Archaeology Service and is one of the Oral History Society’s regional networkers for the West Midlands area. Maggie will look at how family historians might use oral history recordings to provide a wider social context for the life and times of their ancestors\, for example using recordings which cover events they have lived through\, trades/occupations they have followed and places they have lived. \nMaggie will deal with the pluses and minuses of using oral history in this way and suggest where members might look for suitable existing collections both locally and nationally.

SUMMARY:Stourbridge: Identifying Old Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Old Photographs and their identification and dating\nA presentation by Tom Doig. Tom will not consider the technical processes used in production of photographs but rather use the clues offered by the mounts\, the dimensions and the materials to uncover the essential facts. Similarly costumes will not be examined as a dating factor as grandma\, just as today didn’t always wear the latest fashion. Remember Grt Grandma always wore the same black bombazine after the death of her husband. \n  \nMembers are encouraged to bring photographs from their collections for identification\, Tom will use them as examples. \nDownload a poster here

SUMMARY:Wolverhampton: The Bicycle Industry of Wolverhampton
DESCRIPTION:The Bicycle Industry of Wolverhampton – A talk by Vic Davies\nA history of the bicycle industry in Wolverhampton – one of rise and fall.  From its earliest beginnings in the town in 1868 until the early 1970s\, cycles were made in large quantities. There are known to have been over 200 cycle makers in the town between 1868 and 1975.  The industry flourished for nearly half a century\, producing famous names like Marston\, Sunbeam\, Star\, Wulfruna and Rudge.  Today there are no cycle makers left in Wolverhampton at all.
