Other writings, undated
Series Description
This series contains three of Russell Lee’s FSA field notebooks (late 1930s-early 1940s), with his notes which were later used to write captions for his FSA photographs. After a certain point in time, Jean Lee took over the duty of gathering this information and maintaining notebooks for this purpose. The notebooks maintained by Jean Lee are presumed to have been discarded by Ms. Lee after Russell Lee’s death. Other materials in this series include family documents such as Russell Lee’s mother’s diary from 1900-1901, the family Bible dating from 1881, as well as some of Jean Lee’s writing assignments dating from 1967.
