Notes * The years mentioned below the women’s names the are the ones encountered in the documents researched. Some of the women may have been involved in the leprosy cause before 1926, as was Margarida Galvão, or after 1947, like Eunice Weaver. The years found in the documents produced by the federation are indicated in the table. When these documents did not provide any information on dates, this gap was filled by searching archive newspapers in the Biblioteca Nacional online database (Hemeroteca Digital). ** The search of newspapers gave rise to a few repeated names, a case in point being Olga Teixeira Leite. Perhaps the first treasurer of the federation was related to Edgard Teixeira Leite, himself on the federation board. He was involved in designing the architecture of the pavilions for the preventoria, to replace the former single block, since this was “hard to organize in disciplinary terms, because of the promiscuity of sex and age” (cited in Curi, 2010CURI , Luciano Marcos . Excluir, isolar e conviver: um estudo sobre a lepra e a hanseníase no Brasil . Tese (Doutorado em História das Ciências) – Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais , Belo Horizonte . 2010 . , p.272). |
