Deceased Personnel Photographs c.1884-2003

This series comprises photographs of deaconesses deceased prior to 2004. Originally these photographs were a part of the deaconess personnel files, but for preservation purposes they were separated and placed into their own series. The photographs date from approximately 1884-2003 and include formal portraits, as well as informal and candid shots. There are black and white, sepia-toned, and color photographs. Not every deaconess who has a personnel file in the companion series ELCA 127/6/1 has a photograph in this series. Many of the photographs are the photographs the deaconesses supplied with their application forms. Others are those that were taken by the deaconess community and others that were accumulated over time. The majority of the photographs are either cabinet cards or gelatin silver photoprints.
