Collection Overview

The collection consists of 319 photographs that belonged to Ruth Strickland Baucom and includes a photo album, loose photos and an obituary card. The album is composed of numerous family related snap shots most of which are identified by brief captions beneath the pictures. Many of the images are of scenic views while on vacation in North Carolina, particularly the mountains. Some of the identified locations are Barnardsville, Kenilworth (now part of Asheville), Newland, and Lake Waccamaw. Also, there are photos taken of historic sites in Edenton, the State Capitol in Raleigh, and of students at Wake Forest College. A good number of the photographs appear to have been taken in the Franklin County area near the Strickland's home.

The loose photographs are older than the snapshots in and associated with the album and are mostly portraits. Few of the individuals are identified, but the name and location of the photographer are often present. Many of these photographs were made in Raleigh by Cyrus P. Wharton and in Oxford by W. F. Washington. There is one photo of an unidentified family and their homeplace taken by a Washington, North Carolina, photographer. Paul Strickland lived in Cuba during the early 1920s and worked as a bookkeeper for a power company that installed power lines there; three of the loose pictures were shot there. Also, the collection includes an elevated view of the town of Barnardsville in Buncombe County. Lastly, there is a death notice card in memory of Mrs. Wiley G. Riddick who died September 16, 1900, age 64 years, 7 days.

Arrangement Note

The collection begins with the photograph album. Photographs that had come loose from the album and were simply tucked into the front of the album are at the beginning followed by the album itself. Where possible photographs were left in the album because they were glued in and removal would have greatly damaged the pictures. Also, keeping the album intact preserves an example of an early 20th century photo album. Removal also would have destroyed the owner's unique organization and identification of the images. A series of loose photos that were never in or associated with the album follow. These loose photos are arranged primarily in chronological order with the portraits first and the few non-portraits placed at the end.
