Elementary School Photo Collection

Connors Street School Class Photo Grade 5 1953


We have been collecting elementary school class photographs taken during 1949-1954 from the Hubbardston, Westminster, and Gardner schools. Our work is almost done, but not all collections are complete, and not all students in the class photos have been identified. We have prepared class photo albums for the following schools and grades:

Westminster Elementary Schools Grades 1-6 plus 7-9.
Hubbardston Schools Grades 1-6 plus 7 and 8.
Coleman Street School Grades 1-6
Connors Street School Grade 5
Elm Street Grade 5
Gardner Junior High School Homeroom Photos Grade 7 and 8
Holy Rosary School Graduation Photo
Pleasant Street School Grades 1-4
Prospect Street School Grades 1-6
Sacred Heart School Graduation Photo
School Street Grades 1-6
West Broadway School Grades 1-4
West Street School Grades 1-4

The following GHS classmates have helped by providing photographs to scan electronically or by identifying students or teachers in the photographs. Much of this work has been done through e-mail.

Robert Hunter Coffin Jr., Alan Erickson, Lloyd Hannula, Jerry Arsenault, Sandra Merikanto Hanson, Lorna Rivers, Jean Williams Mattson, Evelyn Hurme Fogg, John Oinonen, Ernest Lehtonen, Merilyn Ruuka Dunn, Marilyn L'Ecuyer Michelson, Robert Marien, Richard Donovan, Ronald Rosengren, Elaine Stanley Guaraglia, Brian Bjurling, Suzanne Skamarycz Nobrega, James Tamulen, James Ewing, Elizabeth Jacji MacDonald, Carol Johnson Smith, Nancy Ball Griffin, Carolyn Cunninghan Larson, Roger Kinnear, Gladys Narkevicius Richardson, Janice Goeke Tuffin, Shari Montville Whipple, Martin Anderholm, Priscilla Hubbard Brown, Linda Giles Merikanto, Louis Migliozzi, Bevertly Morze Piccone, Shirley Long Smith, Richard Goguen, Carole Nyman Platukis, and Thomas Ryan.

Our photo albums will be displayed at Reunion Events on Saturday, July 24 and Sunday, July 25. You may be able to identify some "unknown" students in the photos. We hope you will be able to help us with this work in progress.
