Emsworth Horticultural Society
Chris
Shaw
has
taken
over
the
digital
archiving
of
the
EHS
along
with
a
detailed
record
of
the
paper
archives
made
by
Suzanne
Holroyd.
As
might
be
expected
over
the
100
years
the
Society
has
been
in
existence,
this
material
is
extensive
but
there
are
gaps.
Any
contributions
will
be
welcome.
In
particular
it
would
be
helpful
if
members
could
search
their
files,
both
paper
and
computer,
for
material
between
the
late
1990s
to
the
present.
This
is
probably
because
most
people
who
wrote
minutes
or
designed
posters
and
flyers
will
have
started
using
a
computer
during
the
last
20
years.
Chris
is
willing
to
scan
and
digitise a small number of
significant
paper records but cannot store paper and the Emsworth Museum has very limited space.
Please
search
for
EHS
records.
These
may
be
in
manila
folders,
on
your
current
hard
disc,
backup
storage
including
flash
drives,
memory
sticks,
DVD-ROM,
CD-ROM
or
even
floppy
discs.
Let
Chris
know
what
you
have,
and
he
will
arrange
to
transfer it. (01243 377459)
