Morris, C H album 1
Date: 1911-ca 1940
From: Beauchamp, Judy (Mrs), fl 1978 :Photographs
By: Morris, C H, active 1920s
Reference: PA1-o-348
Description: In part this album revolves around a family (of William Russell Morris) whose centre is the house at 9 Roscoe Terrace, Wadestown. It also revolves around one of the women in that household, Dorothy, who probably compiled the album. There are a number of women family members of different ages with whom (it would seem) she was close. There are also her colleagues at the Wellington Free Kindergarten, Taranaki Street, and the Newtown Kindergarten where she taught during the 1920s. A large part of this album is taken up with images of children, and by the end of the 1930s it looks as though Dorothy was an infant teacher at Marsden Collegiate School, Karori, Wellington, group photographs of pupils taken between 1933 and 1948. Holidays, and group outings sometimes involving picnics make up another large group of images. The only holiday outside New Zealand is to Fiji in 1920, and most of the images taken during this trip are of Indians and Indian events This is very much a woman's compilation. Men as a generalisation are few and far between and somewhat in the background when they appear. Thus it is also a good source of information on the clothing of women and children between 1920 and 1948 An envelope with four loose prints is inserted at the front of the album. Page 49 contains a newspaper cutting, showing a view of the tram stop at Moorhouse Street, Wadestown, with tram tracks and a tram, with bare fields on either side. Other - The school photograph at top left hand corner of page 39, is reproduced in the book "Marsden School" by Tosti Murray (1967), illustration no. 45. It identifies the class, the year, and all the pupils in the image. Other - The name C H Morris is taken from the Photo Archive Albums index, which says C H Morris was the photographer of three albums, and that he was a postmaster-general in the 1920s. There is no C H Morris listed in Wise's Post Office Directory, however William Russell Morris is listed as Secretary of the Post and Telegraph Department; and listed as living at 9 Roscoe Terrace. Quantity: 1 album(s) Album(s). Physical Description: Album with black cover, entitled "The Cambrian album" in gold lettering; 24.5 x 29.5 cm
