Photograph album belonging to Effie Ferguson

Photograph album belonging to Effie Ferguson

A collection of amateur family snaps, social events and holidays of Ferguson family members, mostly in and around Victor Harbor. A few appear to have been taken overseas and interstate. Many are taken in Gandy's Gully (which appears as 'Ganley's Gully in the captions - perhaps a family pun on the official name) and on the south coast at Victor Harbor and Port Elliot, and possibly also at Inman Valley. The earlier, captioned photographs are dated by the owner as being taken in 1902, but there is a clear progression apparent both in terms of the fashions worn and the quality of the photography.
