Fannie B. Rosser, family, and friends, circa 1910-circa 1956

Containers:

Box 3, Folder 7

Extent:

53 photographs

Scope and content:

Folder houses gelatin silver prints, chiefly small snapshots of an informal nature, of Fannie B. Rosser and her family, friends, and other individuals, many of them posing in front of houses and with cars; the images date from about the 1910s to sometime after 1956. Some are captioned with names and a few have dates. The majority of the later photographs were taken in Durham, N.C.; earlier locations are unidentified. Fannie Rosser appears in many of these images, from her college-age years, posing with a small group of young women, to her late adulthood, attending Mattie Burton's wedding to Earl Meyers in 1947. There is one photograph identified as Joseph I. Rosser, Fannie's brother, as a young man; there are other family members in the earlier images who are unidentified, including one which appears to be Fannie and her stepmother and father.
