Hildred Thurow's Teenage Photo Album
Hildred Thurow was a somewhat whimsical teenager as evidenced by the photos in her photo album. Most of the pictures were taken either shortly before or during the first couple years of WWI. Later events may have destroyed some of her innocence, but she always seemed be above the fray.
The photos are arranged according to the pages Hildred pasted them on. She apparently didn't pay too much attention to the chronological order. On some pages she indicated the date, but not on others. Very few of the individuals in the photos are identified in her album, but I have made some identifications.
The original photo album has been donated to the Winona Historical Society.

| 164 |  | Four Girls (again) From page 47a in Hildred's album. I have tried to identify these girls from the 1915 Radiograph, the Winona High School yearbook, and also the Winona Normal School yearbook for 1917, thinking that they may be Hildred's classmates. I didn't recognize any of them. | |
