TEXAS SOCIETY SCHOLARSHIPS
Contact Scholarships Chairman

The
Harding-Massengill Scholarship
was the first Texas Society Scholarship established in 1984
with a $1000 gift from Cornelia Ann Holmes Massengill of
Longview. This scholarship was designated for a student
enrolled in Stephen F Austin State University in
Nacogdoches. At the 1994 State Conference, the membership
voted to change the name of the scholarship to “Harding-Massengill
Scholarship” honoring Mrs. Jane Harding of the Austin
Embassy Chapter for her generous contributions to the
scholarship fund. The Bylaws Standing Rules call for an
award of $1000 to be distributed from interest earned on the
fund principle balance. This scholarship is awarded at the
end of the year, only once a year. Our Texas Society manages
the funds in this scholarship.

The
Texas Society Scholarship
was the project of Mrs. Billie Rogge Bilhartz, State President
1997-1999. The Texas society maintains these funds with
interest earned on the principle balance funding the award.
A recipient must be a Texas resident enrolled in an
accredited Texas college or university. The applicant should
be concentrating on a career that advances the objects of
the Society with majors preferred in history, library
science, historical research or preservation. Chapters are
encouraged to endorse an applicant for the Texas Society
Scholarship. Deadline for submitting an application for the
spring semester 2011 is November 15th. The sale of Tote Bags
