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 three Fadeley siblings as young children. Pictured left to right, are: Ola Mae, Katherine Marie “Kay”, and Warren Richard. Their parents were Lloyd Richard (1895-1953) and Ada Marie (Didawick) (1893-1979) Fadeley.
The 1940 census found the family living together on a farm near Edinburg (Madison District). All three children were raised there.
Ola Mae married Oliver Newton Peer (1922-2013), who was born Maurertown and attended Toms Brook High School, graduating in 1941. He served in the U.S. Army during World War II with the 638th Tank Destroyer Battalion, fighting in the Battle of the Bulge and receiving the Bronze Star. He later owned and operated the Woodstock Coin Shop. Both Ola and her husband were longtime and active members of the Edinburg Christian Church as well as other civic organizations in the area. Ola was also known for her beautiful tatting during her later years. After her husband died, she moved to North Carolina for a short time at the end of her life. Both she and her husband are buried in Sunset View Memorial Gardens in Woodstock.
Katherine Marie “Kay” Fadeley married Garrett Odell Smoot (1922-1968) in February 1945 in Washington D.C. Six years later, when their son, Larry Allen Smoot (1951-1984), was born they lived in Arlington, Virginia. By 1957, when their daughter, Kathy Ann Smoot (1957-2021) was born, they had moved back to Shenandoah County. When Kay’s husband died, they lived in the Narrow Passage Creek area near Edinburg.
Warren moved to Washington D.C. as a young man. When he registered for the WWII draft in 1942, he lived at 1431 N Street, N.W. and worked for the Sears Roebuck & Co. on Georgia Avenue, N.W. Physically, he was described as 5’ 5 1/2” tall and weighed 135 pounds.
He married a woman named Louise (from Shenandoah County) in Rockville, Maryland, in 1942. Soon after, he served as a PFC in the U.S. Army during WWII. After the war, the couple divorced in 1946.
A year later, Warren lived in Washington, D.C. and married Nancy Lee (Triggs) (1928-2017) from Albemarle County. By 1950, the census found them living in Arlington, Virginia, where Warren worked as a Route Salesman for a laundry corporation and Nancy worked as a clerk typist for a retail credit association.

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.
