This subseries contains 5 photograph albums and 2 groups of photographs found in binders. The oldest album appears to date from circa 1870-1880, and contains photographs of members of the extended McPherson family in Jefferson County, New York; those identified include Stephen McPherson’s sister, Lucinda, her husband, Jay Calhoun, and their two daughters, Georgianna and Ada. The subseries also includes an album kept by William McPherson in 1906-1907, during hiss first period as school principal in San Juan Capistrano. It contains photographs primarily of San Juan Capistrano, Orange, and other localities in Orange and San Diego counties, as well as Southern California missions outside these counties; it also contains photographs of San Francisco and Stanford University taken in July 1906, showing extensive earthquake damage. The materials include in addition a postcard album, circa 1907-1910, kept by Jennie (Vincent) McPherson, containing postcards of the Cape Vincent area of New York State sent to her by her relatives, and of California sent to her by her son Vincent during his travels while in the employ of Southern Pacific Railroad. An additional two photograph albums contain photographs of various localities in California and adjoining states; whether they originated with the McPherson family, or whether William McPherson acquired them by purchase is not known. The subseries also includes two sets of pages of photographs portraying life in Orange County and put together by Don Meadows circa 1962 and after 1971, respectively, from photographs found loose and prints from negatives now in in subseries 1.5.2.
