Description |
Collection of 35mm negatives from Claire and Everett Murchie. The 195 negatives are of black and white photos taken in the Fitchburg and Leominster area. The majority of the photos are taken by Claire (Rousseau) Murchie and many appear to be pictures she took while doing photo lessons from a photography class as you see many pictures of the same subject. The photos include still life pictures, exterior and interior photos of Churches in the area, Lowe Playground, Fitchburg State College, and of Whalom Park. Everett had enlisted in the Marine Corps in Dec. 1941 and served in World War II. Everett and Claire married on Oct. 3, 1945. Both Everett and Claire graduated from Fitchburg High School in 1937. They both became competitive nature and history photographers. |
