Consists of three meeting ledgers documenting the activities of the Mrs. Edmund Rice Auxiliary of the United Spanish War Veterans, an American women's organization run by suffragists and philanthropists that advocated for veterans and their families during the first two decades of the 20th century, including during World War I. Spanning over 300 pages, the ledgers document the Wakefield, Massachusetts-based auxiliary's meetings, roll calls, officer votes, and projects as recorded by multiple women serving in the role of secretary. The ledgers begin in 1906 when the group was operating under the name Corporal Charles F. Parker Auxiliary, and shortly thereafter, they document the group's name change to the Mrs. Edmund Rice Auxiliary in November of 1906, with entries continuing under this name through 1922. Leaders serving in the role of secretary include Louise M. Parker (1868-1954), a member of the National Woman Suffrage Association and leader of women's clubs; Minnie Gihon, an active community member in Wakefield who was married to the National Commander of the USAWV; and (Anna) Myrtle Feindel, a woman from a nearby town who was married to a dairy farmer. In the organization's earlier years, Parker writes of the group's inaugural decisions, including bylaws, charitable priorities, and elections. Later entries further demonstrate how the organization's members carried out their work, taking roll calls, following Robert's Rules of Order, and conducting an internal audit of their books to ensure transparency. The group's projects during the period documented include establishing relief funds for veterans and their families, pursuing benefits for widows and dependents of soldiers killed in wars, organizing charity events, and making donations to libraries and other civic institutions, among other efforts. These ledgers provide evidence of how women were organizing in their communities as leaders for charitable purposes during an era where many of the same women were also organizing around women's suffrage.
