Dr Michele Matthews has been a local and social historian for nearly three decades since she first used correspondence held by the then Bendigo City Council for her Honours thesis. She is an ardent advocate for the use of local history records to tell Victorian and Australian history from a grassroots perspective. Michele’s MA thesis, ‘A forgotten “Father” of Federation: Sir John Quick 1852‑1911’ (2003), and her PhD thesis, ‘Survivors, schemes, Samaritans and shareholders: the impact of the Great Depression on Bendigo and District 1925‑1935’ (2007), both drew heavily on Bendigo and district records. Michele used this article for her research: The Economic Manufacturing Company was a historic textile factory in Bendigo. Starting operations in 1912 on High Street, the company specialized in producing "whiteworks" (the term for women's and children's cotton underwear and undergarments). Operated a factory on High Street and later moved into the former Bickford Smith safety fuse factory buildings in Ironbark (near Wattle and Valentine Streets).
