Hildred Thurow's Teenage Photo Album

Hildred Thurow's Teenage Photo Album

Hildred Thurow was a somewhat whimsical teenager as evidenced by the photos in her photo album. Most of the pictures were taken either shortly before or during the first couple years of WWI. Later events may have destroyed some of her innocence, but she always seemed be above the fray. The photos are arranged according to the pages Hildred pasted them on. She apparently didn't pay too much attention to the chronological order. On some pages she indicated the date, but not on others. Very few of the individuals in the photos are identified in her album, but I have made some identifications. The original photo album has been donated to the Winona Historical Society.

Four Girls on Lawn
From Page 47a in Hildred's Album

These are the same girls that are pictured on the outing to Rochester, MN, on August 8, 1915, but it's unclear where this picture was taken, whether it was in Rochester or Winona. It may have been in Winona either before or after the trip. Hildred indicated it was taken in August of 1915 but she didn't put the exact day on this page.

Four Girls (again)
From page 47a in Hildred's album.

I have tried to identify these girls from the 1915 Radiograph, the Winona High School yearbook, and also the Winona Normal School yearbook for 1917, thinking that they may be Hildred's classmates. I didn't recognize any of them.

Unidentified Little Boy
From Page 47 b in Hildred's album.

This might be Raymond Thurow, son of Herbert Thurow. Hildred marked this page with the date of 1915 and Raymond would have been three years old as his birthdate was June 24, 1912).

William and Eleanor were married on April, 28, 1915, so this picture was taken close to their marriage date, either before or after.

The inscription on the page is "Camp Nepahwin, Black Bird Island." I have not been able to locate this island. There is a Lake Nepahwin south of Sudbury, Ontario, north of Lake Huron, but there is no Black Bird Island there. These pictures seem to have been taken somewhere on the Mississippi River.
