Description
An account of the resource
In 1899 Hugh Morrison Jr. opened a photograph studio on W. Court Street in Woodstock after several years of working in the area as a travelling photographer.
Between that time, and the time his grandson James Morrison closed the studio in 1988, the Morrison family captured thousands of portraits, landscapes, and buildings on film and glass negatives.
In 1999 the Shenandoah County Historical Society acquired over 31,000 of these negatives from the estate of local collector Charles D. Bauserman. Volunteers from the historical society worked over the next several decades to house, number, and scan each image. This effort resulted in over two tons of Morrison plates and negatives being processed and digitized.
This collection contains those digitized versions of these photographs.
Through a partnership between the historical society and the Shenandoah County Library's Truban Archives access to a growing number of these images is available to the public. Current projections indicate the full collection will be available for viewing sometime in 2028.
This collection does contain some images of a sexual and/or graphic nature that some viewers may find inappropriate.

Description
An account of the resource
Portrait of Wilmetta "Met" Veron (Eastep) Bly wearing a polka dotted dress and a bead necklace.
Wilmetta was the daughter of Luther Monroe (1854-1938) and Sarah Catherine (Hammon) (1860-1937) Eastep. Her father was a blacksmith.
Her husband was Walter William Bly (1878-1932), born in Frederick County, the son of Daniel Bly (1849-1909) and Harriett Elizabeth (Orndorff) (1855-1931) Bly. She married him in December 1902.
Wilmetta and Walter had four children over the course of their years together. They were: Alvin Arthur Bly (1908-1964), Sarah E. Bly, Walter I. Bly and Aden William Bly (1915-1970). The latter two appear to have been born at the same time, possibly twins,
Both the 1920 and 1930 censuses find Wilmetta, her husband, and her children living on a farm in Fishers Hill near Strasburg. By 1940, Wilmetta was widowed but still there. Her daughter, 27-year old Sarah E., was the only one of her children still living with her.
She remained on her farm in Fishers Hill until the end of her life.
She and her husband are buried in Saint Stephens Cemetery in Strasburg Junction.

"We have found during our four years of toil at Strasburg High that a more loyal, enthusiastic friend and pal than "Doug" could never be found. As President of our class he has always worked for the best interests of it, never ceasing to strive for its welfare. He constitutes the life and athletic unit of our class, being a basketball player and a member of the track team. "Doug" is considering a scholarship given by Handley School for his athletic ability."

In 1899 Hugh Morrison Jr. opened a photograph studio on W. Court Street in Woodstock after several years of working in the area as a travelling photographer.
Between that time, and the time his grandson James Morrison closed the studio in 1988, the Morrison family captured thousands of portraits, landscapes, and buildings on film and glass negatives.
In 1999 the Shenandoah County Historical Society acquired over 31,000 of these negatives from the estate of local collector Charles D. Bauserman. Volunteers from the historical society worked over the next several decades to house, number, and scan each image. This effort resulted in over two tons of Morrison plates and negatives being processed and digitized.
This collection contains those digitized versions of these photographs.
Through a partnership between the historical society and the Shenandoah County Library's Truban Archives access to a growing number of these images is available to the public. Current projections indicate the full collection will be available for viewing sometime in 2028.
This collection does contain some images of a sexual and/or graphic nature that some viewers may find inappropriate.

Lantz, Teddy Paul (1897-1973)
Description
An account of the resource
Photograph of Teddy Paul Lantz, seated and wearing a suit.
Teddy was the son of Leonidas and Mattie (Coffelt) Lantz. His father had been married before and had children from his previous marriage.
A vintage Morrison photograph reprinted in the Shenandoah Herald newspaper in 1967 showed the Union Forge School’s Class of 1907. Teddy was identified as one of the students pictured there.
When he registered for the WWI draft in 1918, he worked in Washington D.C., as a railway postal clerk. His mother was listed as his emergency contact. She lived in Lantz Mills with his younger sisters. The 1920 census found him back in the Madison District of Shenandoah County on a farm that his family owned. He still worked as a mail clerk for the railroad. His mother was widowed.
He married in June 1925 in Woodstock. His bride was Margaret Eleonore Bly (1894-1979), born in Fisher’s Hill, near Strasburg, to Philip P., a farmer, and Lydia M. (Swartz) Bly. At the time of the marriage, both Teddy and Margaret lived in Washington D.C.
The couple had a daughter, Nellie Mae, born in late 1928.
When he registered for the WWII draft, his employer was the U.S. Post Office located in Washington D.C., but he and his wife were listed as living in rural Edinburg. He was described as being 5’10” tall and 165 pounds. He had a mole on his right temple.
Later in life, Teddy’s occupation was both a farmer and a mail clerk. His wife taught in the public schools until she retired. Both Teddy and Mary are buried in Sunset View Cemetery in Woodstock.
