Biographical materials, 1969 - 1995
Scope and Contents
File contains the following: photocopy of the entry for Barbara Weir in the Girton College Register, Volume II, 1969; photocopy of an obituary for Barbara Weir by Idwal Rowlands in the Girton Review, 1994; obituary by Idwal Rowlands, 1994, illustrated with a photograph of B W [printed from the internet February 2014]. The file also includes an anonymous obituary printed in 2022 from the online Biology of Reproduction Vol. 52 Issue Monograph Series 1: p 789, 1995.
Note: the two reviews by Idwal Rowlands are more or less identical. However, the online version [printed 2014] reads ‘Many SSF members will know how bright and cheerful she was…’ while the Girton Review version reads ‘Many Society of St Francis members will know how bright and cheerful she was…’ It has been suggested that SSF might stand for Society for the Study of Fertility rather than Society of St Francis.
