                  <text>These photos were donated to MHGS in June, 2012, by Shirley Smith; there was no additional information from the donor.  It appears that the photos belonged to Lorna Gibson, who was born in Vermont, lived several years in Palestine, with her mother, a missionary, and went into missionary work herself.  The photos are very roughly grouped into three lots: Family photos from the Gibson and Cox families, snapshots taken in and around Palestine during the late 1920s and early 1930s focusing on Bernice Gibson, her work and her family, and snapshots taken in New England during the 1930s focusing on Lorna Gibson.&#13;
&#13;
The first 25 photos were in a manilla envelope from "CAO TIMES, Box 75, Old Chelsea Station, New York, N.Y. 10113" (stamped) to "Mr. Curtis L. Gibson, General Delivery, Sulphur Springs AR 72768" post date unreadable&#13;
&#13;
Items 26 through 37 were in a manilla envelope addressed to Bernice C. Gibson 412 Black Ave. Sulphur Spring, Ark, postmarked Chicago, Ill, no date.&#13;
&#13;
Items 38 through 44 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
Items 45 through 55 were in an unlabeled cardboard folder&#13;
&#13;
Items 56 through 78 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
7 copies of item 79 were in a manilla envelope labeled "Gibson Family Relatives &amp; Friends. Mrs. Gibson, 412 Black Avenue. Sulphur Springs, Ark." No postmark&#13;
&#13;
Item 80 was inside one envelope from "Lorna F. Gibson 29 Court Street Woodsville, New Hampshire" to "Moen Photo Service 867 Moen Bldg La Crosse, Wisconsin" postmarked August 11, 1943 and labeled "CBC senior graduation photo." This envelope was inside a second envelope from "19885 Wisteria St. Castro Valley, Calif." to "Mrs. Bernice C. Gibson Sulphur Springs Arkansas" and labelled "Lorna's Friends" and postmarked 1964.&#13;
&#13;
The remaining items were in an envelope with a printed return address of "Spanish-World Gospel Mission, Inc. El Camino de la Vida, P.O. Box 542, Winona Lake, Indiana 46590" and a typed address of "Miss Lorna Gibson, Rt. 1 Box 199 Sulphur Springs, AR 72768" &#13;
&#13;
The final item, oversized, was separate in the box.&#13;
&#13;
The photos were processed by Julia Langel, June and July 2012.&#13;
&#13;
Processing note: Several of the captions for the snapshots in these photos refer to "Mishlambs."  After some investigation, the processor thinks that this may not be a family name; instead, it appears to be an affectionate collective nickname for the children of the missionary group Bernice Gibson belonged to.&#13;

                  <text>These photos were donated to MHGS in June, 2012, by Shirley Smith; there was no additional information from the donor.  It appears that the photos belonged to Lorna Gibson, who was born in Vermont, lived several years in Palestine, with her mother, a missionary, and went into missionary work herself.  The photos are very roughly grouped into three lots: Family photos from the Gibson and Cox families, snapshots taken in and around Palestine during the late 1920s and early 1930s focusing on Bernice Gibson, her work and her family, and snapshots taken in New England during the 1930s focusing on Lorna Gibson.&#13;
&#13;
The first 25 photos were in a manilla envelope from "CAO TIMES, Box 75, Old Chelsea Station, New York, N.Y. 10113" (stamped) to "Mr. Curtis L. Gibson, General Delivery, Sulphur Springs AR 72768" post date unreadable&#13;
&#13;
Items 26 through 37 were in a manilla envelope addressed to Bernice C. Gibson 412 Black Ave. Sulphur Spring, Ark, postmarked Chicago, Ill, no date.&#13;
&#13;
Items 38 through 44 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
Items 45 through 55 were in an unlabeled cardboard folder&#13;
&#13;
Items 56 through 78 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
7 copies of item 79 were in a manilla envelope labeled "Gibson Family Relatives &amp; Friends. Mrs. Gibson, 412 Black Avenue. Sulphur Springs, Ark." No postmark&#13;
&#13;
Item 80 was inside one envelope from "Lorna F. Gibson 29 Court Street Woodsville, New Hampshire" to "Moen Photo Service 867 Moen Bldg La Crosse, Wisconsin" postmarked August 11, 1943 and labeled "CBC senior graduation photo." This envelope was inside a second envelope from "19885 Wisteria St. Castro Valley, Calif." to "Mrs. Bernice C. Gibson Sulphur Springs Arkansas" and labelled "Lorna's Friends" and postmarked 1964.&#13;
&#13;
The remaining items were in an envelope with a printed return address of "Spanish-World Gospel Mission, Inc. El Camino de la Vida, P.O. Box 542, Winona Lake, Indiana 46590" and a typed address of "Miss Lorna Gibson, Rt. 1 Box 199 Sulphur Springs, AR 72768" &#13;
&#13;
The final item, oversized, was separate in the box.&#13;
&#13;
The photos were processed by Julia Langel, June and July 2012.&#13;
&#13;
Processing note: Several of the captions for the snapshots in these photos refer to "Mishlambs."  After some investigation, the processor thinks that this may not be a family name; instead, it appears to be an affectionate collective nickname for the children of the missionary group Bernice Gibson belonged to.&#13;

                  <text>These photos were donated to MHGS in June, 2012, by Shirley Smith; there was no additional information from the donor.  It appears that the photos belonged to Lorna Gibson, who was born in Vermont, lived several years in Palestine, with her mother, a missionary, and went into missionary work herself.  The photos are very roughly grouped into three lots: Family photos from the Gibson and Cox families, snapshots taken in and around Palestine during the late 1920s and early 1930s focusing on Bernice Gibson, her work and her family, and snapshots taken in New England during the 1930s focusing on Lorna Gibson.&#13;
&#13;
The first 25 photos were in a manilla envelope from "CAO TIMES, Box 75, Old Chelsea Station, New York, N.Y. 10113" (stamped) to "Mr. Curtis L. Gibson, General Delivery, Sulphur Springs AR 72768" post date unreadable&#13;
&#13;
Items 26 through 37 were in a manilla envelope addressed to Bernice C. Gibson 412 Black Ave. Sulphur Spring, Ark, postmarked Chicago, Ill, no date.&#13;
&#13;
Items 38 through 44 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
Items 45 through 55 were in an unlabeled cardboard folder&#13;
&#13;
Items 56 through 78 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
7 copies of item 79 were in a manilla envelope labeled "Gibson Family Relatives &amp; Friends. Mrs. Gibson, 412 Black Avenue. Sulphur Springs, Ark." No postmark&#13;
&#13;
Item 80 was inside one envelope from "Lorna F. Gibson 29 Court Street Woodsville, New Hampshire" to "Moen Photo Service 867 Moen Bldg La Crosse, Wisconsin" postmarked August 11, 1943 and labeled "CBC senior graduation photo." This envelope was inside a second envelope from "19885 Wisteria St. Castro Valley, Calif." to "Mrs. Bernice C. Gibson Sulphur Springs Arkansas" and labelled "Lorna's Friends" and postmarked 1964.&#13;
&#13;
The remaining items were in an envelope with a printed return address of "Spanish-World Gospel Mission, Inc. El Camino de la Vida, P.O. Box 542, Winona Lake, Indiana 46590" and a typed address of "Miss Lorna Gibson, Rt. 1 Box 199 Sulphur Springs, AR 72768" &#13;
&#13;
The final item, oversized, was separate in the box.&#13;
&#13;
The photos were processed by Julia Langel, June and July 2012.&#13;
&#13;
Processing note: Several of the captions for the snapshots in these photos refer to "Mishlambs."  After some investigation, the processor thinks that this may not be a family name; instead, it appears to be an affectionate collective nickname for the children of the missionary group Bernice Gibson belonged to.&#13;

                  <text>These photos were donated to MHGS in June, 2012, by Shirley Smith; there was no additional information from the donor.  It appears that the photos belonged to Lorna Gibson, who was born in Vermont, lived several years in Palestine, with her mother, a missionary, and went into missionary work herself.  The photos are very roughly grouped into three lots: Family photos from the Gibson and Cox families, snapshots taken in and around Palestine during the late 1920s and early 1930s focusing on Bernice Gibson, her work and her family, and snapshots taken in New England during the 1930s focusing on Lorna Gibson.&#13;
&#13;
The first 25 photos were in a manilla envelope from "CAO TIMES, Box 75, Old Chelsea Station, New York, N.Y. 10113" (stamped) to "Mr. Curtis L. Gibson, General Delivery, Sulphur Springs AR 72768" post date unreadable&#13;
&#13;
Items 26 through 37 were in a manilla envelope addressed to Bernice C. Gibson 412 Black Ave. Sulphur Spring, Ark, postmarked Chicago, Ill, no date.&#13;
&#13;
Items 38 through 44 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
Items 45 through 55 were in an unlabeled cardboard folder&#13;
&#13;
Items 56 through 78 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
7 copies of item 79 were in a manilla envelope labeled "Gibson Family Relatives &amp; Friends. Mrs. Gibson, 412 Black Avenue. Sulphur Springs, Ark." No postmark&#13;
&#13;
Item 80 was inside one envelope from "Lorna F. Gibson 29 Court Street Woodsville, New Hampshire" to "Moen Photo Service 867 Moen Bldg La Crosse, Wisconsin" postmarked August 11, 1943 and labeled "CBC senior graduation photo." This envelope was inside a second envelope from "19885 Wisteria St. Castro Valley, Calif." to "Mrs. Bernice C. Gibson Sulphur Springs Arkansas" and labelled "Lorna's Friends" and postmarked 1964.&#13;
&#13;
The remaining items were in an envelope with a printed return address of "Spanish-World Gospel Mission, Inc. El Camino de la Vida, P.O. Box 542, Winona Lake, Indiana 46590" and a typed address of "Miss Lorna Gibson, Rt. 1 Box 199 Sulphur Springs, AR 72768" &#13;
&#13;
The final item, oversized, was separate in the box.&#13;
&#13;
The photos were processed by Julia Langel, June and July 2012.&#13;
&#13;
Processing note: Several of the captions for the snapshots in these photos refer to "Mishlambs."  After some investigation, the processor thinks that this may not be a family name; instead, it appears to be an affectionate collective nickname for the children of the missionary group Bernice Gibson belonged to.&#13;

                  <text>These photos were donated to MHGS in June, 2012, by Shirley Smith; there was no additional information from the donor.  It appears that the photos belonged to Lorna Gibson, who was born in Vermont, lived several years in Palestine, with her mother, a missionary, and went into missionary work herself.  The photos are very roughly grouped into three lots: Family photos from the Gibson and Cox families, snapshots taken in and around Palestine during the late 1920s and early 1930s focusing on Bernice Gibson, her work and her family, and snapshots taken in New England during the 1930s focusing on Lorna Gibson.&#13;
&#13;
The first 25 photos were in a manilla envelope from "CAO TIMES, Box 75, Old Chelsea Station, New York, N.Y. 10113" (stamped) to "Mr. Curtis L. Gibson, General Delivery, Sulphur Springs AR 72768" post date unreadable&#13;
&#13;
Items 26 through 37 were in a manilla envelope addressed to Bernice C. Gibson 412 Black Ave. Sulphur Spring, Ark, postmarked Chicago, Ill, no date.&#13;
&#13;
Items 38 through 44 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
Items 45 through 55 were in an unlabeled cardboard folder&#13;
&#13;
Items 56 through 78 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
7 copies of item 79 were in a manilla envelope labeled "Gibson Family Relatives &amp; Friends. Mrs. Gibson, 412 Black Avenue. Sulphur Springs, Ark." No postmark&#13;
&#13;
Item 80 was inside one envelope from "Lorna F. Gibson 29 Court Street Woodsville, New Hampshire" to "Moen Photo Service 867 Moen Bldg La Crosse, Wisconsin" postmarked August 11, 1943 and labeled "CBC senior graduation photo." This envelope was inside a second envelope from "19885 Wisteria St. Castro Valley, Calif." to "Mrs. Bernice C. Gibson Sulphur Springs Arkansas" and labelled "Lorna's Friends" and postmarked 1964.&#13;
&#13;
The remaining items were in an envelope with a printed return address of "Spanish-World Gospel Mission, Inc. El Camino de la Vida, P.O. Box 542, Winona Lake, Indiana 46590" and a typed address of "Miss Lorna Gibson, Rt. 1 Box 199 Sulphur Springs, AR 72768" &#13;
&#13;
The final item, oversized, was separate in the box.&#13;
&#13;
The photos were processed by Julia Langel, June and July 2012.&#13;
&#13;
Processing note: Several of the captions for the snapshots in these photos refer to "Mishlambs."  After some investigation, the processor thinks that this may not be a family name; instead, it appears to be an affectionate collective nickname for the children of the missionary group Bernice Gibson belonged to.&#13;

                  <text>These photos were donated to MHGS in June, 2012, by Shirley Smith; there was no additional information from the donor.  It appears that the photos belonged to Lorna Gibson, who was born in Vermont, lived several years in Palestine, with her mother, a missionary, and went into missionary work herself.  The photos are very roughly grouped into three lots: Family photos from the Gibson and Cox families, snapshots taken in and around Palestine during the late 1920s and early 1930s focusing on Bernice Gibson, her work and her family, and snapshots taken in New England during the 1930s focusing on Lorna Gibson.&#13;
&#13;
The first 25 photos were in a manilla envelope from "CAO TIMES, Box 75, Old Chelsea Station, New York, N.Y. 10113" (stamped) to "Mr. Curtis L. Gibson, General Delivery, Sulphur Springs AR 72768" post date unreadable&#13;
&#13;
Items 26 through 37 were in a manilla envelope addressed to Bernice C. Gibson 412 Black Ave. Sulphur Spring, Ark, postmarked Chicago, Ill, no date.&#13;
&#13;
Items 38 through 44 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
Items 45 through 55 were in an unlabeled cardboard folder&#13;
&#13;
Items 56 through 78 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
7 copies of item 79 were in a manilla envelope labeled "Gibson Family Relatives &amp; Friends. Mrs. Gibson, 412 Black Avenue. Sulphur Springs, Ark." No postmark&#13;
&#13;
Item 80 was inside one envelope from "Lorna F. Gibson 29 Court Street Woodsville, New Hampshire" to "Moen Photo Service 867 Moen Bldg La Crosse, Wisconsin" postmarked August 11, 1943 and labeled "CBC senior graduation photo." This envelope was inside a second envelope from "19885 Wisteria St. Castro Valley, Calif." to "Mrs. Bernice C. Gibson Sulphur Springs Arkansas" and labelled "Lorna's Friends" and postmarked 1964.&#13;
&#13;
The remaining items were in an envelope with a printed return address of "Spanish-World Gospel Mission, Inc. El Camino de la Vida, P.O. Box 542, Winona Lake, Indiana 46590" and a typed address of "Miss Lorna Gibson, Rt. 1 Box 199 Sulphur Springs, AR 72768" &#13;
&#13;
The final item, oversized, was separate in the box.&#13;
&#13;
The photos were processed by Julia Langel, June and July 2012.&#13;
&#13;
Processing note: Several of the captions for the snapshots in these photos refer to "Mishlambs."  After some investigation, the processor thinks that this may not be a family name; instead, it appears to be an affectionate collective nickname for the children of the missionary group Bernice Gibson belonged to.&#13;

                  <text>These photos were donated to MHGS in June, 2012, by Shirley Smith; there was no additional information from the donor.  It appears that the photos belonged to Lorna Gibson, who was born in Vermont, lived several years in Palestine, with her mother, a missionary, and went into missionary work herself.  The photos are very roughly grouped into three lots: Family photos from the Gibson and Cox families, snapshots taken in and around Palestine during the late 1920s and early 1930s focusing on Bernice Gibson, her work and her family, and snapshots taken in New England during the 1930s focusing on Lorna Gibson.&#13;
&#13;
The first 25 photos were in a manilla envelope from "CAO TIMES, Box 75, Old Chelsea Station, New York, N.Y. 10113" (stamped) to "Mr. Curtis L. Gibson, General Delivery, Sulphur Springs AR 72768" post date unreadable&#13;
&#13;
Items 26 through 37 were in a manilla envelope addressed to Bernice C. Gibson 412 Black Ave. Sulphur Spring, Ark, postmarked Chicago, Ill, no date.&#13;
&#13;
Items 38 through 44 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
Items 45 through 55 were in an unlabeled cardboard folder&#13;
&#13;
Items 56 through 78 were in an unlabeled manilla envelope&#13;
&#13;
7 copies of item 79 were in a manilla envelope labeled "Gibson Family Relatives &amp; Friends. Mrs. Gibson, 412 Black Avenue. Sulphur Springs, Ark." No postmark&#13;
&#13;
Item 80 was inside one envelope from "Lorna F. Gibson 29 Court Street Woodsville, New Hampshire" to "Moen Photo Service 867 Moen Bldg La Crosse, Wisconsin" postmarked August 11, 1943 and labeled "CBC senior graduation photo." This envelope was inside a second envelope from "19885 Wisteria St. Castro Valley, Calif." to "Mrs. Bernice C. Gibson Sulphur Springs Arkansas" and labelled "Lorna's Friends" and postmarked 1964.&#13;
&#13;
The remaining items were in an envelope with a printed return address of "Spanish-World Gospel Mission, Inc. El Camino de la Vida, P.O. Box 542, Winona Lake, Indiana 46590" and a typed address of "Miss Lorna Gibson, Rt. 1 Box 199 Sulphur Springs, AR 72768" &#13;
&#13;
The final item, oversized, was separate in the box.&#13;
&#13;
The photos were processed by Julia Langel, June and July 2012.&#13;
&#13;
Processing note: Several of the captions for the snapshots in these photos refer to "Mishlambs."  After some investigation, the processor thinks that this may not be a family name; instead, it appears to be an affectionate collective nickname for the children of the missionary group Bernice Gibson belonged to.&#13;
