While historians of twentieth-century South Africa have made use of women’s memoirs as an archive, this article argues that these memoirs can also be regarded as historiography.

Yet a closer reading of the evidence presented to the 1894 Labour Commission and the committee appointed to investigate the Destitute Chil…
