DescriptionPhoto album created by Florence Palmer, featuring snapshots of her friends and family, including her sister Cornelia and her parents, Alison and Louise Palmer. Many of the photos have captions with the subjects, locations, and dates. Palmer probably started the album in her early teens -- the earliest photos are from 1922, when she was 13 or 14. Many of the photos show various people engaging in summer activities at the family's lake house in Winsted. Some of the later photos are probably from Florence's time at Elmira College.
