The Dixie Archives

Colony Scrapbooks

Many of the scrapbooks which include newspaper articles, brochures, postcards, letters, sketches, and photographs contain items which have never been seen before by the general public. We are working to carefully digitize each item and preserve them for future generations.

Examples of some specific items included in our collection:

  • An illustrated birthday tribute to Kelly Fitzpatrick dated August 15, 1950.
  • Rare photographs of the colonists and instructors.
  • Notes, letters and sketches by many of the colonists.
  • Original colony brochures and postcards.
  • Newspaper clippings about the colony.
