Title A name given to the resource Morrison Studio Collection Subject The topic of the resource Morrison, Hugh Jr. (1871-1950) Morrison, Louis Morrison, James 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.

Title A name given to the resource Bondage Biographies: Enslaved People of Shenandoah County Description An account of the resource In 2018, the Truban Archives began compiling information to create a searchable database of enslaved people in Shenandoah County during the years 1772 to 1865. Under the direction of the archivist, several volunteers pored over various resources to compile spreadsheets of information. The data compiled included the following information (if known): names, names of enslavers, locations related to the person, birthdates, relationships, what happened to them (e.g., emancipation, willed, ran away), the records’ citations, and other notable information. The resources used to discover this information are varied, and all can be found at the Truban Archives. Volunteers examined newspaper clippings and several books, including abstracts of wills, research notebooks, births indexes, and a publication on the history of Edinburg, Virginia. Once the data of several hundred people were assembled, the spreadsheet was uploaded to the digital archives for public consumption. More people will be uploaded as the research progresses. Though much information has been found and made available to the public, unfortunately, Bondage Biographies: Enslaved People of Shenandoah County Collection will never truly be completed. This is due to lost records, including missing newspaper copies and unrecorded information. Because of this, the collection is an ongoing process, with more entries being made as new information is discovered.

Title A name given to the resource Morrison Studio Collection Subject The topic of the resource Morrison, Hugh Jr. (1871-1950) Morrison, Louis Morrison, James 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.

Shaffer Subject The topic of the resource Shaffer, William Robert (1916-1996) Description An account of the resource A portrait photograph of Bill Shaffer wearing a suit and tie. He is best remembered for his work as a poultryman, and as a former Mayor of Woodstock, and a former member of the Virginia General Assembly. Bill Shaffer was born in Middletown to Vernon Spitler (1884-1958) and Mary Leah (Stover) (1885-1973) Shaffer, originally from Page County. In 1920, the family lived for a time in Berryville, Clark County, where his father worked in a flour mill. They moved to Maurertown where his father became a poultry farmer and hatchery operator. Bill graduated from Woodstock High School and Massanutten Military Academy (MMA). At a young age, Bill was active in the Future Farmers of America (FFA) and the Baby Chick Association. When Bill registered for the WWII draft, he worked at the Shenandoah Commercial Hatchery, his father’s operation. He was described as being 5’11 ½” tall, 150 pounds, and wore glasses. He married Elizabeth Moorhouse (Jones) in her hometown of Albany, New York, in 1943. She had graduated from Russell Sage College and worked for the American Viscose Company (later known as Avtex Fibers) as the Director of Publicity and Public Relations for the Lewistown, Pennsylvania, plant. At the time of his wedding, Bill was serving as a member of the Virginia House of Delegates. He served from 1942-1947, and was followed by his father who served from 1950-1958. Bill became a partner in his father’s hatchery business as well as the Woodstock Canning Company. The Northern Virginia Daily published over 150 short notices about his involvement in the community and local politics during the 1930’s, 1940’s, and 1950’s. The 1950 census found Bill and Elizabeth living on West Locust Street in Woodstock along with two children: Susan L. and Andrew T. Shaffer. His occupation was “Hatchery man”. Bill spent his last years living in the Bayles Lake area of Loda, Iroquois County, Illinois.

Title A name given to the resource Morrison Studio Collection Subject The topic of the resource Morrison, Hugh Jr. (1871-1950) Morrison, Louis Morrison, James 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.

He is best remembered for his work as a poultryman, and as a former Mayor of Woodstock, and a former member of the Virginia General Assembly. Bill Shaffer was born in Middletown to Vernon Spitler (1884-1958) and Mary Leah (Stover) (1885-1973) Shaffer, originally from Page County. In 1920, the family lived for a time in Berryville, Clark County, where his father worked in a flour mill. They moved to Maurertown where his father became a poultry farmer and hatchery operator. Bill graduated from Woodstock High School and Massanutten Military Academy (MMA). At a young age, Bill was active in the Future Farmers of America (FFA) and the Baby Chick Association. When Bill registered for the WWII draft, he worked at the Shenandoah Commercial Hatchery, his father’s operation. He was described as being 5’11 ½” tall, 150 pounds, and wore glasses. He married Elizabeth Moorhouse Jones in her hometown of Albany, New York, in 1943. She had graduated from Russell Sage College and worked for the American Viscose Company (later known as Avtex Fibers) as the Director of Publicity and Public Relations for the Lewistown, Pennsylvania, plant. At the time of his wedding, Bill was serving as a member of the Virginia House of Delegates. He served from 1942-1947, and was followed by his father who served from 1950-1958. Bill became a partner in his father’s hatchery business as well as the Woodstock Canning Company. The Northern Virginia Daily published over 150 short notices about his involvement in the community and local politics during the 1930’s, 1940’s, and 1950’s. The 1950 census found Bill and Elizabeth living on West Locust Street in Woodstock along with two children: Susan L. and Andrew T. Shaffer. His occupation was “Hatchery man”. Bill spent his last years living in the Bayles Lake area of Loda, Iroquois County, Illinois.
