Shelburne Creamery Winter 1922-1923, Building and some of the employeesEntry/Object ID
2025.14.23Description
The Creamery, winter 1922-1923. (From index card) Taken during winter 1922-1923, month uncertain. Not many of the men bought the photo. Reason for the photo unclear; "photographer wanted picture of building and such help that was on the job that day." NOT in the picture were Mr. Cochran, who was the "big boss"; Kitty Noonan who worked in the office (she was sister to Raymond Noonan); Mae Douglas, milk tester; Carl Fletcher, who was the general manager; Grace Story (Mrs. Clifford), office. Mr. Fletcher was evidently General Manager for the entire Cooperative; Mr. Cochran was Manager of the Shelburne Creamery only. Identification of men in photograph; left to right, front row, Jim Norman, Joe Noonan (Shelburne), Jim Noonan (brother to above), Ralph Marsett (head bookkeeper; Shelburne), William (Bill) Plumley (ran the ice machine; foreman) died in 1974. Back row, Alec Collier Jr. (Shelburne), Robert McGee (sp; Shelburne Falls), Hugh C. Ball (Shelburne; assistant butter maker), Jim Berry (sp), Raymond Noonan, Clifford Story (Shelburne; now lives in Reading, VT), and Wallace Langdon (No. Ferrisburgh). Information furnished by Hugh C. Ball, RD 1, Ferrisburgh, VT. Information relayed by Mrs. A.A. Austin, 14 Victory St., Vergennes, VT.Photograph Details
