Context paragraphs:
Edward C. Delavan: Edward Cornelius Delavan (1793–1871) was a wealthy businessman who devoted much of his fortune to promoting the temperance movement.  He helped establish the American Temperance Union; attacked the use of wine in Christian communion; established a temperance hotel in Albany, New York; traveled to Europe to promote teetotalism.  He helped spearhead the local option movement in New York during the 1840s by which local majorities could vote their towns dry.  In 1846, he received the nomination for the Governorship of New York from the Native American Party, but he declined it.  He was also active in the Maine Law prohibition movement of the 1850s.  He later sent a copy of a temperance tract to every soldier in the Union Army during the Civil War (a million copies in all); and sponsored a series of periodicals.  They included the "Journal of the American Temperance Union", the "Temperance Recorder", the "American Temperance Intelligencer"; the "Enquirer", and the "Prohibitionist".  Prohibition or dry towns in Illinois and Wisconsin were named in his honor.

Temperance movement in the United Kingdom: The Temperance movement in the United Kingdom originated as a mass movement in the 19th century.  Before this, though there were diatribes published against drunkenness and excess, total abstinence from alcohol was very rarely advocated or practised.  The earliest temperance societies, inspired by the Belfast professor of theology, and Presbyterian Church of Ireland minister John Edgar, who poured his stock of whiskey out of his window in 1829, concentrated their efforts on spirits rather than wine and beer.  Joseph Livesey was another British temperance advocate who financed his philanthropic work with the profits attained from cheese production, following an introduction to the food product by a doctor he had consulted with regards to a serious ailment in 1816.  The term "teetotal" is derived from a speech by Richard (Dickie) Turner, a follower of Livesey, in Preston in 1833.  Livesey opened the first temperance hotel in 1833 and the next year founded the first temperance magazine, "The Preston Temperance Advocate" (1834–37).  The British Association for the Promotion of Temperance was established by 1835.

People's Democratic Temperance League: People's Democratic Temperance League (Finnish: "Kansandemokraattinen raittiusliitto" ) was a temperance organization linked to the Finnish People's Democratic League (SKDL).  KDRL was founded in the 1970s as the previous temperance movement attached to SKDL, the People's Temperance League was taken over by the so-called Taistoists, the orthodox pro-soviet wing of the Communist Party of Finland.  In the early 1990s the KDRL changed its name to Kunnon Elämä.

Woman's Temperance Publishing Association: The Woman's Temperance Publishing Association (WTPA) was a non-commercial publisher of temperance literature.  Established in 1879 in Indianapolis, Indiana during the national convention of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU), it was a concept of Matilda Carse, an Irish-born American businesswoman, social reformer and leader of the temperance movement.

Carrie Nation: Carrie Amelia Nation (forename sometimes spelled Carry; November 25, 1846 – June 9, 1911) was an American woman who was a radical member of the temperance movement, which opposed alcohol before the advent of Prohibition.  She is particularly noteworthy for attacking alcohol-serving establishments (most often taverns) with a hatchet.

Mary Allen West: Mary Allen West (July 13, 1837 - 1892) was an American journalist, editor, educator, superintendent of schools, and temperance worker.  A teacher in her early career, she served as superintendent of schools in Knox County, Illinois, being one of the first women to fill such a position in Illinois.  An active supporter of the temperance movement, West served as president of the Illinois Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU), and editor of the national paper, "Union Signal".  Her other roles within the WCTU included superintendent of the Training School for Temperance Workers, Illinois State Superintendent of Temperance in Schools of Higher Education, as well as Stockholder, Director, and Secretary of the Woman's Publication Association.  She was the first president of the Illinois Woman's Press Association, member of the Chicago Woman's Club, director of the Protective Agency for Women and Children.  West was the author of "Childhood: Its Care and Culture" (1892).  She died in Japan while training temperance workers in organization and promotion reform efforts.

Templars of Honor and Temperance: The Templars of Honor and Temperance established in the United States in 1845 as the Marshall Temperance Fraternity as part of the temperance movement.  The Templars were formed as a result of a schism within the older Sons of Temperance, when some felt that the organization did not have an elaborated enough ritual.  The new group changed its name several times, first to "Marshall Temple, No. 1, Sons of Honor," then to "Marshall Temple of Honor, No. 1, Sons of Temperance."  In 1846 the National Temple of the Templars of Honor and Temperance of the United States was instituted in New York.

Prohibition Park: Prohibition Park, also called National Prohibition Park, was a temperance town and park used as a summer colony in the New York City borough of Staten Island, precursor to the modern Westerleigh neighborhood.  The park and community were founded after the purchase of the land in 1887 by members of the National Prohibition Party (serving as the party's headquarters) during a temperance movement prior to Federal prohibition in the United States, with the specification that no consumption of alcohol would be permitted in the area.  At its peak the park had extended nearly 150 acres, but declined in the 1900s along with the temperance movement, with much of the land sold to non-movement members.  The remaining parkland was obtained by the City in 1907, surviving as Westerleigh Park and Northerleigh Park operated by the New York City Parks Department.

Battle-axe (woman): A battle-axe is a term, generally considered pejorative, for an aggressive, domineering and forceful woman.  The prime example was the militant temperance activist Carrie Nation, who wielded a hatchet and made it her symbol, living in "Hatchet Hall" and publishing a magazine called "The Hatchet".  She became involved in the suffragette campaign for votes for women and this campaign further established the archetype.

Julia Coleman: Julia Coleman, of the U.S. state of New York, was Superintendent of the Literature (publications) Department of the Women's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU).  In 1868 she presented a lecture on "Alcohol our Enemy" at her church and quickly became involved in anti-alcohol activities.  She wrote temperance articles for the National Temperance Publishing House and the "Youth's Temperance Visitor".  She then became convinced that temperance should be taught in the schools, a belief shared by Mary Hunt, with whom she worked closely.  In doing so she contributed significantly to Scientific Temperance Instruction and was an important part of the temperance movement.
