I'm doing some research around caving. I'd like to hear about women who caved with their families and friends, or clubs from the late nineteenth century up to 1939. There must be so many small stories that won't make it to books, but are still part of caving history.
I'd like to know how they got involved in caving and when, what their background was, who they caved with and how much they did. Anything about what they wore, where they stayed, how they travelled would be helpful. Even odd bits of info will be welcome.
If you can help please contact me. Nothing will go public unless you are happy with that. If there is enough information for a booklet to go in the BCA library as a record of women caving in the early days I'll put one together.
Thanks.
