Mrs. Harold Wilson
← People of the Society · on record 1956–1957
Possibly the same person: Nina Wilson →
Both are of the Hamilton Branch, and both are recorded as its President in the same years: Nina Wilson is the branch’s President in 1963 and 1964, and the branch’s own annual report prints “1964-65 Executive — President, Mrs. Harold Wilson”. Mrs. Harold Wilson is also the branch’s Secretary in 1956 and on its 1957 slate, and Nina Wilson is the Society’s Secretary in 1960. The Summer 1966 issue, p3, writes that “When Nina Wilson became chairman in 1963, her husband was C.S.C.L. chairman”, and Harold Wilson of Hamilton was the Society’s own chairman in those years — the Executive of 1964 met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Wilson in Hamilton. No page, though, prints the two forms of her name together.
