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
Photograph of the Gulf Service Station in Woodstock Virginia.
Advertisements for “Gulf Tires” and “Gulfpride” fuel are visible. Two groups of unidentified men are also visible.
The station was located on the west side of US Route 11 in the 100 block of N. Main Street. As of 2022, the site was the home of a gazebo in front of the Woodstock Town Office.
This structure was originally constructed by Bernie Borden in the 1930s. It closed ca. 1960 and became the home of the Woodstock Police Department until being razed.
Visible to the rear of the building is a garage that was originally home to Peer and Brill Motors, a local Ford dealership. This structure was later used as the Shenandoah County School Bus Garage before being purchased by the Town of Woodstock and converted into their Town Office ca. 1960.
