OXFORD ― The Oxford Memorial Library will be hosting a Women's History Month presentation by Village Historian Vicky House from 1 to 2 p.m. on Saturday, March 22 at the Oxford Memorial Library, located at 8 Fort Hill Park in Oxford.
House's presentation, titled "Women in War: The Role They Played," will feature information about women in history from Oxford and the surrounding areas and their participation in war efforts.
"If anybody has been to any of Vicki’s past presentations, she does a great job with a PowerPoint presentation. It has all of her information of the history she’s collected, and then she goes really into depth of her stories and adds a lot of extra detail that connects it to the places we know in Oxford," explained Oxford Memorial Library Director Gillian Mulder.
"She will be covering a few different women in her presentation from Oxford and the surrounding areas, and their participation in the war effort whether it be during wartime or peacetime. So from nurses, doctors, ambulance drivers, war workers, pilots, she said our women made Oxford proud."
