Phyllis is president of the Donegal Presbyterian Church
Women’s Association which meets at least six times a year.
She served as vice-president two years and this is her second
year as president. The association is comprised of two circles
and each one meets eleven times a year. Their purpose is
largely missionary and they do not have things to make
money. They serve a caterer for the Donegal Historical
Society which has an all-day meeting the third Thursday of
June and the fed 175 people last month. Bill is a member of
the Men’s Association who served about 600 people at the
strawberry festival. The Women’s Association helped with
this and they made 60 to 70 pies, 50 cakes, soup, sandwiches
and had ice cream. The Men’s Association also has a
Christmas party for the children. Phyllis, on occasion,
substitutes as a Sunday School teacher and sang in the
church choir before her children were bom. Bill is a trustee
of the church. As far as Sunday goes Mrs. Endslow says “We
keep Sunday for family day. We think there should be one day
set aside to be together.’’ Sometimes they might have a
picnic, even In one of their com fields.
Mr. and Mrs. Endslow became life members of the
Donegal Historical Society last year. This organization is 61
years old and is comprised of a group of people from all over
Pennsylvania and some out of state who pay the life mem
bership fee for the purpose of preserving the Donegal
Church. This beautiful old historic church was built in 1719
and directly in front of it stands the Witness Tree around
which the congregation pledged their allegiance to the cause
of the Colonists during the American Revolution. The
Donegal Springs are behind the church and often are the
scene for weddings and wedding receptions. The church has
constructed an education wing, the exterior being duplicate
of the original building and is joined by a breezeway. The
Historical Society started as a Sunday School reunion. Each
year they congregate for a religious service from 11 A.M. to
12:30 the third Thursday of June. They always have a
speaker, a notorious guest soloist and the church choir to
sing. Mrs. Donald Betty is their choir director.
William has been a member of the Penna. Fanners
Association at least four years and Mrs. Endslow was an
active member of the Lancaster County Farmers
Association Women’s Committee for two years. She has been
a member of Farm Women Society 8 for three and a half
years. William, his two brothers and his father were all
Masters of the Marietta Masonic Lodge, and members of the
Consistory and the Shrine in Harrisburg.
Mrs. Endslow enjoys working with her vegetable garden
and flowers. They use about four inches of ground corncobs
to mulch their garden and thus it is not necessary to plow the

garden in the spring. They Just stir the top soil and corncobs
around a little and can plant it. This saves a lot of harrowing
and hoeing and it retains moisture in dry weather. It also lets
you plant early in the spring when the soil is too wet to plow.
Phyllis has a number of flower annuals as well as perennials,
dogwoods and shrubs. She has geraniums planted in hanging
baskets which add much to the front entrance of their house.
Her husband fashioned a large high window box type place in
their bedroom for her house plants and covered It with
ceramic tile. This is a practical idea and the flowers are not
crowded yet do not use floor space.
Phyllis has several hobbies. The main one is making
ceramics. Her cousin, Mrs. Walter Mowrer taught her three
years ago how to make them. She made one creche set in
white and is making a painted one. She has a cherry boy and
girls partly done and has made vases, plates and bowls. She
enjoys knitting. At present she is knitting a red, white and
blue designed cardigan for Billy. She has a collection of
antique dishes and a few pieces of antique furniture. She likes
to read. She says she does a lot of reading between 10 P.M.
and midnight when it is quiet. She enjoys cooking, especially
using her time saving electronic oven. She gives us these
recipes, the chicken chutney or salad being a must for their
family picnics and the Montgomery pie being a tradition at
the Donegal Historical Society reunion and the recipe ap
pears in the Donegal Cookbook which was published in 1971.
