Our next Women’s History Month spotlight - on International Women’s Day no less - is on Eula Pray.
Eula, who lived and taught in the Rochester area from 1934 to 1945, is known for leaving behind the most detailed history of Avon Township up to that point. Her thesis for her Master’s Degree was on the history of Avon Township that she had completed in 1944. It wasn’t until 40 years later that her thesis was published as “A History of Avon Township 1820-1940.” In 1986, a book debut gala was held at Meadow Brook Hall with Eula in attendance.
