Social History...
(Produced in 2002 and has not been updated, many things have changed since then.)
When the Wicklewood and Crownthorpe Archive was formed in 2004 there was a lot of material to be collected. The founding Treasurer, Tom Ebert had already spent time collating a lot of material into this Social History document in 2002.
Much of the material came from Edith Cook (Aunty of Basil Cook, a local farmer) who had been collecting material on Wicklewood and the surrounding area for many years, with help from Jo Cook and others.This webpage makes this material available for the first time without being edited.
Time has moved on and some of the information presented has changed. Tom left Wicklewood some years ago and emigrated to New Zealand where sadly he died.
This presentation of the Social Project is dedicated to Tom for his friendship and commitment to the Archive.
