Marguerite Andell Collection 1919-1945

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/310117113

The Marguerite Andell Collection, 1919-1945, consists of four folders of materials, including three biographical files and one photograph album. Miss Andel's personal files contain many postcards and personal letters from France, with dates ranging from 1919 to 1945. There is also a booklet titled "Official Guide to Nantes for the American Expeditionary Forces," containing history of the city, information about places of interest, tips for servicemen stationed there, and a map of the city. Additionally, there is a postcard book, and several blank postcards with images of Hostel-Dieu de Beaune. Andell's photograph album is not dated. Miss Andell appears in many photos throughout the album. These photographs were presumably taken in Europe during World War I, and include scenes of a funeral and various cemeteries, troops' bunks, damaged buildings, hospital scenes, wounded soldiers, nurses, and tanks. There are photos with the Red Cross, with medical doctors, and scenic photos of various areas.
