The Marjorie Howard Futcher Photo Collection

Abstract |
A description by the author of two photograph albums, containing over 800 photos, assembled by Montrealer Marjorie Howard Futcher and donated to the McGill University's Osler Library by her son, Palmer Futcher. Born Gwendolen Marjorie Howard (1882-1969), Marjorie Howard Futcher was the youngest daughter of the McGill University physician and Dean of Medicine, Robert Palmer Howard (1823-1889). As the daughter of a distinguished and influential McGill medical professor, Marjorie Howard Futcher was acquainted with, related to, and/or the friend of many of Montreal's and Canada’s most influential families of the early twentieth century. The author points out that the photo collection illustrates not only Marjorie Howard Futcher's life, but those of many others in her social milieu. The author outlines a biography of Marjorie Howard Futcher.
