Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The Nettie E. Marshall Collections offer insight into the personal life of retired school teacher Nettie E. Marshall shortly after the death of her husband Frank P. Marshall. The collection features a photograph of Nettie E. Marshall and a Texas Teacher’s Daily Register from Mrs. Marshall’s classroom from the academic year 1918-1919 where she took role daily. The collection also features a photograph of Nettie E. Marshall and husband Frank P. Marshall alongside his obituary publicizing his death on November 1, 1949. The collection features a personal letter written by Nettie E. Marshall to niece Nan A. Christopher dated January 17, 1950. The letter primarily discusses her continued bereavement over husband Frank P. Marshall’s recent death but also discusses family, weather, nearby construction, and the rising cost of bills. This collection would be useful to researchers interested in the personal life of Nettie E. Marshall and Frank P. Marshall. This collection would also be useful for researchers interested in Mrs. Marshall’s 1918-1919 classroom roster for genealogical purposes or general interest in early 1900s classrooms.
