Photographs,
1900-1970 (Bulk, 1937-1970)
13 Boxes (12 Large, 1 Oversize)
Introduction
These photographs were transferred to the Archives
by Tom Price, Communications Department, Mennonite Board of Missions,
in January 2002.
Photograph Project
These older 1900-1970 photographs are now available
for use. The photographs consist of 668 files which are arranged
alphabetically by the name of countries and states (USA). The
photographs reflecting the work of the Mission Board itself and its
departments, are found under the section of "MBM". For example, "MBM
Annual Board Meetings, 1949-1958".
This project was undertaken in spring of 2001
in
order for the Mennonite Board of Missions to work on their historical
time line for the Web. The board also wanted to write two special
historical issues of Missions Now before the change into Mennonite
Mission Network on February 1, 2002.
This photograph project was completed by Tim Voliva,
a history major student at Goshen College, for his internship at the
Mission Board. The biggest task was to sort these files alphabetically,
since these photographs were in several sets of A-Z files, with many in
not any sequential order at all.
Tim first listed each file title, including
beginning and end dates. He then went through the list and came up with
standard geographic and subject headings. Then original location file
numbers were added to each file (and at the end of each file title on
the computer). This allowed him to sort these 668 files alphabetically
on the computer, and then physically put the files in order. This was
possible by using the Sort function on Word 6.0. Final location numbers
were then added to the beginning of each file to allow for easier
retrieval and re-filing of photographs. This same approach was used for
sorting the 1971-1995 section consisting of 230 photograph files. The
project lasted over three months, from January to May 2001.
Support for this project was given by Tom Price,
Director of Communications. Additional support was provided by Ethel
Hoffman, Coordinator of Office Services and Archiving, and Dennis
Stoesz, Archivist of the Archives of the Mennonite Church.
