Rees family photograph albums, 1900-1958

Two photograph albums and a small quantity of loose photographs, postcards, and ephemera that were once part of the albums. The images date from 1900-1958 and are primarily black and white snapshot portraits depicting members of the Rees family and others, both adults and children. Most people are unidentified. One album (Album 646) has a handwritten label on the inside front cover that reads: "Margaret Rees / Shaniko / Oregon / Christmas 1923 / From Mamma." The album primarily contains photographs of people, particularly children; identified subjects include William Adelbert Rees, Harry Rees, Jack Rees, John Rees, James Rees, and Mary Rice. Scenes and subjects include picnics, Christmas celebrations, and the Shaniko High School baseball team (between 1910 and 1920). The second album (Album 247) contains images of unidentified members of the Rees and Burgess families, the area around Shaniko, railroad tracks, outdoor activities, badminton, baseball, children, cars, the interior of an unidentified house, the Pacific Coast, and trips to Astoria and Seaside, Oregon.
