The Genevra Ducro Papers consist of a photograph album, biographical information, and photographs. The material relates chiefly to her time as a student at Mount Holyoke College, 1918-1922. Included in the album are numerous snapshots depicting social activities and college traditions. The majority of the photographs show Ducro and her friends atop Mt. Holyoke Range on Mountain Day, participating in theatrical performances, and playing in the snow. A few photographs also show Mount Holyoke College students at the Young Women's Christian Association summer camp at Silver Bay, N.Y. Scenes of different parts of campus, the interior of a dorm room, and pictures from the 1922 Commencement are also included. The biographical material, 1925-1987, includes a biographical note, a newspaper clipping discussing an automobile trip Ducro took with classmate Florence Brugger and her obituary. Two copies of a photograph taken during her senior year at Mount Holyoke College are also included in the collection.
