Photograph album of the Parker and Davidson Families
The album shows aspects of station life at various sheep properties in the far north east of South Australia and the Broken Hill region, among them Buckalow, Bimbowrie, Oulnina Park, Telechie, Burta, Topar, Tantallon and Yalcowinna as well as visits to other stations in New South Wales and Victoria namely Morundah, Widgeongully and Tolarno. Three young women thought to be Grace Langloh Parker (1895-1987) and her sisters Wilga Maud (1898-?) and Una Geraldine Davidson, nee Parker (1901-1986) are central to many of the photographs and it may be that the album was compiled by Grace Parker. Holiday visits were made to Victor Harbor, Port Elliot, Inman Valley, Second Valley, Mount Gambier, Portland Victoria, Sydney and Tasmania. A number of photographs relate to the BHP towns, Iron Knob and Broken Hill. Two of the Parker daughters, thought to be Wilga and Grace, accompanied their Mother on a voyage from Sydney to the Celebes and Java in 1926, including sightseeing at Macassar in the Celebes, the Mount Bromo Volcano, Sand Sea, Borobodur, and other places in Java with the homeward voyage via Singapore, Port Darwin, Thursday Island and Cairns.

Picnic train with open trucks conveying men, women and children to an annual picnic believed to be one being held by the Manchester Unity Lodges at Penrose Park Silverton. According to a researcher, seven years later this same train was attacked by two Turkish patriots. The researcher recalls: 'My Great Aunty was on the train when the "Turks" opened fire, she remembered the event well. She was a primary school child at the time. She remembers seeing "Joe the Ice" and all the kids waving to him in excitement because they thought they were about to get ice-cream.

After returning home she remembers her neighbour taking off her hat and finding a bullet hole in it, at which point she fell down in a faint'.
