A history of central Pennsylvania Guild of Handweavers
The following information was researched and compiled by Robin Lunger and initially published in the December 2015 edition of the Weaver's Knot.
In an effort to uncover information and/or documents to support some History of the Central Pennsylvania Guild of Handweavers to incorporate in our website, I entered the name of Osma Gallinger Tod into my search engine.
Now, if you've spent any time at the Mannings (now a retired Handweaving school, originally located in East Berlin, PA), you will know that the name Osma Gallinger Tod was mentioned frequently, along with the names Harry & Katherine Manning. However any specific paperwork or documents regarding the evolution of CPGH seemed to be elusive.
The voyage of discovery that followed was delightful. So, rather than providing a boring timeline, I thought you might enjoy seeing and reading the actual articles and documents as they unfolded. Enjoy!
