Birmingham and Warwickshire Archaeological Society
The Society was founded in 1870 (with 190 subscribers, only 5 of whom were women) as the Archaeological Section of the Birmingham and Midland Institute. The Inaugural Lecture by the President, Samuel Timmins, reviewed what was then known about the history of Birmingham, concluding that ‘we ... should, and could, and ought, and must know more.... Our clear duty, then, is to gather up the fragments that nothing be lost ; to note down old facts which illustrate our history ; to collect and preserve old papers, prints, plans, directories, books, pamphlets, handbills, caricatures, &c., which, seemingly worthless now, may contain some scraps of facts eagerly devoured by a succeeding age’.
