Administrative history

The Ladies' Aid Society of Central Presbyterian Church in LaHave, Nova Scotia met monthly in the homes of its members.

From 1918 to 1925 their membership was between seventeen to twenty women, but by 1927 it had dipped to only eight. They elected a president, treasurer, and secretary from among their ranks.
