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.

Subject
The topic of the resource
McClain, Genevieve D. Robinson (ca 1895-1983)
Smith, Alfonso "Buck" (1929-2018)
Smith, Daniel (1931-2014)
African Americans - Virginia - Shenandoah County
Description
An account of the resource
Teacher Genevieve McClain, seated, flanked by three of her students in graduation gowns.
The students are: (l to r) Alfonso Smith, Unknown, Daniel Smith.
These students are most likely ones Genevieve McClain taught while teaching at Creekside School.
Alfonso and Daniel Smith were brothers.
Genevieve D. Robinson was born in Douglas Grove, Berkley County, West Virginia, to David Henry and Sarah E. (Banks) Robinson. The year of her birth varies depending on the document, anywhere from 1892 to 1898. She was one of nine children and her father worked in a stone quarry when she was a child.
She married William McClain (1876-1931) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1922. He was the son of Henry and Georgie (Brown) McClain. Genevieve and William may have had a daughter, Genevieve, but little is known about her.
In the 1930 census, they lived in Pittsburgh, PA, but William died less than two years later. It appears Genevieve moved back to West Virginia.
Genevieve worked as an elementary school teacher in Franklin, W. Va., Woodstock, Va., and Stanardsville, Va. In Woodstock, she taught during the late 1940s and early 1950s at Creekside Elementary School, Woodstock's segregated school.
In the 1950 census, she appeared as a boarder in the household of William and Elizabeth Jefferson near Church and Water Streets in Woodstock. She was a schoolteacher. This photograph was undoubtedly taken during her time in Shenandoah County.
She was a retired teacher and lived in Ranson, West Virginia, when she died. Her obituary noted she had been a member of the Jefferson County Committee on Aging and the N.A.A.C.P. She is buried with her husband in Douglas Grove Cemetery, Berkley County, West Virginia.
The identified students pictured, Alfonso and Daniel Smith, were two sons of George Marvin and Genevieve “Jeneva” (McPherson) Smith. In 1940, the two boys (then only 11 and 10 years old, respectively) lived in a household on Water Street that was headed by their 18-year old sister, Lonella. She did not work and the next oldest child, George, Jr., was only 14 years old. No parents were listed.
In the 1950 census, Alfonso was a lodger on S. Main Street and worked as a Handyman in a hotel.
It appears he spent his entire life in Woodstock and retired with over 30 years as a detailer at the Woodstock Garage. He had two sons, Alfonso Smith, Jr., (who pre-deceased him), and Dwight Smith; as well as a daughter, Karen (Smith) Ford of West Virginia.
Daniel Smith did not stay in Woodstock. He married Shirley Delorus (Munday) (1936-2020), born in Atlanta, and spent much of his life with her on Staten Island, New York. They raised a family there; son David Daniel Smith (1963-2020) and a daughter.

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.

Photograph of James “Jimmy” Thomas Phalen as a boy standing by a table and wearing short pants, striped socks, and a jacket.
Jimmy was the third child born in Strasburg to Timothy B. (1887-1944) and Lillian R. (Smith) (1904-1970) Phalen. In 1930, he and his two siblings, Cecelia A. and Timothy A., lived with their father on West King Street. His father was an engineer for the steam railroad. His mother was not listed.
In the 1940 census, the three children were living on “A” Street in Strasburg with their great aunt and great uncle, Hugh and Ida Stoneburner. The children's parents were not living with them. When Jimmy registered for the WWII draft in 1945, he still lived there.
By 1950, Jimmy lived in Miami, Florida, with his sister, Cecelia, and her husband. His mother, who was divorced, also lived with them. Jimmy worked as a furniture re-finisher in a secondhand furniture store. A year or so later, he married Naomi Velez (1926-2011) in Florida. Naomi was born in Ybor City, Florida.
Jimmy enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1954 and served until May 1956, when he was discharged.
In 1958, Jimmy and his wife moved to Merritt Island in Brevard County, Florida, where he worked for Lockheed and Boeing Space Operations for 37 years. The couple had two sons together, Tim and Sean, and lived out their lives in Florida.

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.
