Collection Organization

The Grace Wagner collection of materials does not include much of a personal nature, but through the printed material she gathered over the years it does reflect on the variety and depth of topical expertise expected in the work done by county Home Demonstration Agents working for the State Agricultural Extension Service. With her career spanning the years from 1930 through 1947 in Wood County, Ohio, Grace helped women adapt to the economic challenges of maintaining an efficient household through the depression and war years.
