- Interviewee biography: Shirley Tanner was born in Detroit in 1947. Her parents were both Jewish. Her mother fled Hungary as a refugee in 1939, while her father emigrated from there in 1934. Shirley attended public schools in Detroit, and then studied social work at the University of Michigan. After marriage, Shirley and Ted Cohn moved to Ontario where Ted had a faculty appointment at the University of Western Ontario in political science. Six years later they moved to Burnaby for Ted’s teaching position in political science at Simon Fraser University. While living in Burnaby, Shirley took care of a growing family while also practicing social work, mainly at Burnaby Hospital. The family enjoyed Burnaby’s libraries and parks. Shirley helped out at her children’s schools, became a Block Watch captain, and the family joined Burquest Jewish Community Association. The Cohns later became members of Temple Sholom Synagogue in Vancouver, while remaining in Burnaby. Beginning in 2009, Ted started an informal hiking group for retired Simon Fraser University staff. This group has been open to others, so now has a wide variety of members. Shirley has also helped lead hikes in the region.

- Scope and Content
- File consists of a collection of photographs which were taken between April 8 and May 20, 1988 by Jim Wolf to document the Love farmhouse from it's original location at 7651 Cumberland Street (the corner of 14th Avenue and Cumberland Street) and the move to the Burnaby Village Museum site. The purpose of this documentary collection was to help capture the original character of the house and record any evident changes over time as modern renovations were discovered along with any changes that were made in order to move the house from it's original site to the museum. Jim Wolf created a "Love House Photo Index" including descriptions for most of the photographs that he created. Film "Rolls A-E" were taken of the house once it was saved and acquired by the Burnaby Village Museum. Film "Rolls F & G" were taken prior to this event and were meant to provide evidence for preserving the house and create a permanent record of an historic building - with the imminent threat of its destruction. Interior shots of the upstairs of the house were recorded on film roll "D" according to another alphabetic system that was used to record each "artifact" ie: fixtures, walls, moulding etc. since there was a good possibility that the mid-section of the second floor would be severed and/or damaged once the kitchen was removed in order to transport the house. Film "roll E" and several other rolls have an emphasis on the kitchen because of the threat of its individual destruction given budgetary, spatial and other constraints.
