Abstract
This interview was conducted with Myra F. Daniel (1894-1988) Lillie M. Poor Badgley (1896-1997) of the Montana Extension Homemakers Club by Aileen Stoner on April 9, 1982. In this interview Mrs. Daniel and Mrs. Lillie Badgley discuss their childhood, both being born in the late 1890’s, what it was like growing up on the farm, and the early days of their married life. Mrs. Daniel and Mrs. Badgley discuss their involvement with the Montana Extension Homemaker’s Club, and how life changed with advances in both technology and machinery for farms.
This interview was conducted as part of a three-year oral history project titled Voices of American Homemakers, funded by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and organized by the National Extension Homemakers Council (NEHC). The project resulted in approximately 200 interviews with women across the United States, documenting their experiences in the early homemaker’s club movement.
