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
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.

Merville E. Fravel wearing a suit and bow tie and standing beside a studio prop.
Merville was the only son of Hubert Franklin (1884-1955) and Lucy Cleveland (Clark) (1885-1964) Fravel. He grew up in rural Woodstock on a farm.
He married Flora Alice (Ryman) (1909-2004) Fravel in 1927. She was the daughter of Charles L. and Ruth Ryman. Both Merville and Flora had finished the 7th grade.
The 1930 census found the family living on Kibler-town Road in the Stonewall District of Shenandoah County. Merville and Flora had a 2-year old son, Carroll. The young family lived with his parents and farmed.
When he registered for the WWII draft, Merville still farmed with his father but also worked part-time at the Riverton Lime Company.
Over the years, Merville and Flora had four children together: Carroll, Imogene, Thomas and Patsy Fravel. After their children had grown, the couple divorced in 1971.
Merville married for the second time in 1979. His bride was Beulah Virginia (Corder) Huffman (1924-2018).
When he died, his death certificate listed his occupation as a retired farmer for a private school.
The name, "Fravel", is written on the glass plate of this image.

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.

An account of the resource
Portrait of Gerald Clark Fravel as a young man and wearing a suit and tie.
Gerald was the son of Jacob Marvin (1895-1954) and Katherine (Clark) (1897-1983) Fravel, from the Edinburg area of Shenandoah County. He had an older brother, Alva M. Fravel (1919-1984).
In the 1930 census, the family lived in the Madison District with his mother’s parents where his father worked as a salesman in a radio shop and his grandfather was a blacksmith. Ten years later, Gerald was still there.
Gerald moved to Washington D.C. soon after. When he registered for the WWII draft, he worked for the telephone company in D.C. and was described as being 5’8 ½” tall and 125 pounds. His mother, in Edinburg, was listed as his emergency contact.
Gerald served in the U.S. Navy from 1943-1946. About a year after his discharge, he married Phyllis Amanda (Wood) in Washington D.C. Phyllis was born in Pennsylvania but had grown up in D.C. She was working for the wartime federal government and taking night classes when she and Gerald met. Her parents were Benjamin F. and Jean Wood. Gerald’s brother, Alva M., served as his best man.
In 1950, the census found him living with his wife and young son, Richard Clark Fravel (born 1948) back in the Edinburg area of Shenandoah County. Gerald worked as a switchboard repairman for the telephone company.
After a few years, the couple moved to Prince William County and raised five children together.
When he died many years later, Gerald worked as an Analyst for Contel and lived in Aldie, Loudoun County. (Continental Telephone company was ranked the third largest telephone company operating in the United States before the 1996 telecon deregulation.)

In the 1930 census, the family lived in the Madison District with his mother’s parents where his father worked as a salesman in a radio shop and his grandfather was a blacksmith. Ten years later, Gerald was still there.
Gerald moved to Washington D.C. soon after. When he registered for the WWII draft, he worked for the telephone company in D.C. and was described as being 5’8 ½” tall and 125 pounds. His mother, in Edinburg, was listed as his emergency contact.
Gerald served in the U.S. Navy from 1943-1946. About a year after his discharge, he married Phyllis Amanda (Wood) in Washington D.C. Phyllis was born in Pennsylvania but had grown up in D.C. She was working for the wartime federal government and taking night classes when she and Gerald met. Her parents were Benjamin F. and Jean Wood. Gerald’s brother, Alva M., served as his best man.
In 1950, the census found him living with his wife and young son, Richard Clark Fravel (born 1948) back in the Edinburg area of Shenandoah County. Gerald worked as a switchboard repairman for the telephone company.
After a few years, the couple moved to Prince William County and raised five children together.
When he died many years later, Gerald worked as an Analyst for Contel and lived in Aldie, Loudoun County. (Continental Telephone company was ranked the third largest telephone company operating in the United States before the 1996 telecon deregulation.)

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.
