Appendix I - The First TCHS 1920-24
In 1920 Col. George Stewart, Visalia’s multi-faceted civic leader known as the “Father of Sequoia National Park”, began meeting informally with like-minded individuals to consider the lack of accurate historic record-keeping for Tulare County. Tulare County’s few living pioneers, he felt, had not been encouraged to provide written statements of their experiences and personal recollections of historic events. This dwindling group included those Indians lucky enough to remember the Valley as it was before the settlers arrived. Stewart desired that these pioneers, and those interested in the preservation of such historical material, form themselves into a Society for that purpose.
March 27, 1920 the first organizational meeting of the proposed Tulare County Historical Society was held at the Tulare County Courthouse, in the courtroom of Judge William B. Wallace. A set of by-laws were adopted, and the following directors were elected: Geo W. Stewart, President; A.H. Murray, Secretary; Mrs. Julia B. Knox; Mrs. W.S. Cairns; L.C. Hyde; Mrs. A.M. Timmons; Mrs. O.L. Flynn. Eleven committees were set up, each charged with gathering historic information of a particular category.
For a time the Society saw steady growth, with upwards of 250 paid members (annual dues were $1). But the membership and interest gradually declined until the Society disbanded around 1924. The small amount of scrapbooks, maps, and other items it had collected were turned over to the Tulare County Library.
Minutes of First Meeting
Pursuant to notice duly given, a meeting of those interested in the formation of the Tulare County Historical Society was held in the courtroom of Department Two of the Superior Court of Tulare County, California, on March 27th, 1920.
There were present at said meeting: Geo W. Stewart, W.B. Wallace, M.E. Power, A.H. Murray, H.D. Barton, and others whose names appear on the roll of membership.
At this meeting Geo W. Stewart was called to the chair, and A.H. Murray was requested to act as secretary.
Mr. Geo W. Stewart in the chair stated fully the objects and purposes of the meeting, and stated that the first business would be the adoption of a set of By Laws. Thereupon, on motion duly made, seconded and carried, a set of by lawswas adopted, a copy of which is contained in the by laws on file with the secretary.
Thereupon the chairman announced that the next business would be the election of a Board of Directors and other officers provided for in the by laws.
After due proceedings the following named officers were duly and regularly elected: Directors: Geo W. Stewart, Mrs. Julia B. Knox, Mrs. W.S. Cairns, A.H. Murray, L.C. Hyde, Mrs. A.M. Timmons, and Mrs. O.L. Flynn.
On motion of M.E. Power, seconded by D.W. Hildebrandt, it was ordered that the matter of dues and finance be referred to the Board of Directors. Tto be reported at next meeting: a plan of collection of dues.
Several interesting and entertaining talks were made by different members.
There being no further business, the meeting adjorned.
