Scope and content

Bound volume containing photographic prints of missionaries mainly in Northern Rhodesia (later Zambia). The prints do not have accompanying captions. The album includes images of religious sisters (mainly Holy Cross Sisters) with African children, performing health care duties (including neo-natal care) and religious instruction (communion classes). There are also some prints of the Most Rev. Timothy Phelim O’Shea OFM Cap., Bishop of Livingstone. The volume also contains some images of churches mainly in Northern Rhodesia. It appears that several prints have been removed from the album.
