Photos: Girls at Camp Nipahwin: Larry and Jane's Family Tree

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.

Girls at Camp Nipahwin

From Page 48b in Hildred's album.

Hildred appears to be the girl kneeling.

The location of Black Bird Island has not been identified although the location appears to be somewhere in the Mississippi RIver. There in a Lake Nipahwin in Ontario, Canada, south of Sudbury, but this picture seems to place it closer to home.
