Description
An account of the resource
The Stanley Opie Archaeology collection (1001 quarter plate glass negatives) covers archaeological sites and excavations from the 1920s to 1950s. It covers hillforts, megaliths, ancient villages, artefacts, excavations such as the Roman villa at Magor near Redruth, and Cornish cultural events such as the first Cornish Gorsedh at Boscawen-ûn in 1928.<br /><br />In 1935 Stanley entered a News Chronicle competition called "Britain 1935". A copy of his entry form was found attached to the back of a small print, listing his address, camera model and film type. He lived at Barncoose, Redruth, Cornwall, and used an Ensign Cameo No. 2 camera with Imperial Eclipse plates.<br /><br />The glass negatives were cleaned, repackaged and digitised thanks to funding from <a href="http://www.cornwallheritagetrust.org">Cornwall Heritage Trust</a>.

Title

Harry Collection
Description
An account of the resource
This collection comprises of the family photos of Carlene Edith Harry, who was born in Essex in 1937.
She was the only child of Edith Sarah Harry (nee Tuck, 1911-1974) and Charles Clifford Harry (known as Clifford, 1904-1997)
Carlene's father was born in Carnyorth and she was immensely proud of her Cornish heritage and keenly interested in all aspects of local history and culture.
Her working life was spent at the Bank of England. When she eventually moved back to Cornwall she first lived in Truro before finally returning to Pendeen, where she immersed herself in the local community, being an active member of her church, the W.I. and several local history groups.
Morrab Library holds the publications of the Penwith Local History Group: 'Growing Up in West Cornwall', 'West Cornwall in the Twentieth Century', and 'Homes and households in west Cornwall'. All of these include articles written by Carlene, taken from her father's memories of Carnyorth and other related material.
Her second cousin was Raymond Harry who, under the pseudonym Jack Penhale, wrote 'The Mine Under the Sea', based on his experience working at Levant Mine as a 14 year old during the 1st World war. He was there at the time of the Levant Mine Disaster.
On her death in August 2020, Carlene left generous bequests to 7 local charities, confirming again her love of Cornwall and West Penwith in particular.

Pye Collection
Description
An account of the resource
The collection consists of 422 photos which were donated by the St Just in Rosalind and St Mawes Heritage Group. The collection consists of images of people and views from a number of photographers who were working in Cornwall from the mid 19th Century.
It seems that almost every town in Cornwall had one or more photographers working in studios. Brooks, Beringer, Burrow, Collenso, Gibson and Preston are just some of those.
Many won awards for their work and won medals awarded by the Cornwall Polytechnic Society which opened in Falmouth in 1833.
Carte-de-visite became very popular after 1854, often used as calling cards containing the photographic mount, there are many examples of this type.
It is apparent that people turned up in their "Sunday Best" to be photographed , it is interesting to note the fashion changes over time from the Victorian era to the Edwardian.
All the while changes were taking place with the photographic process, from plate and gradually to film and negative and the digital process that we have today.
This collection is a very interesting record of the work of the Victorian photographer.

Turner/Dennis Album
Description
An account of the resource
An album of photos was donated to the library with no information attached other than a signature inscribed inside the cover.
'Florence M. Woodman Turner April 1907'.
From this name we found that this lady was born in Essex in 1885, died in 1977 and was buried in Marazion cemetery.
She was the daughter of Samuel Thomas Turner and Florence Maud Dennis, the latter being the daughter of Charles Dennis and Mary Woodman who lived at The Bungalow, Perran Crossroads. (Now a Chinese restaurant.)
Many of the family came down from Essex to visit Charles and Mary, and later settled here themselves.
They took many photos of the countryside around the area.
Also in the album are many photos of the family at home in Essex.
Florence M.Woodman Turner married Charles Henry Lee, son of Henry Lee, butler for Lord St. Levan on St Michaels Mount.
