Oberlin's Namesake: John Frederick Oberlin (1740-1826)

Photograph album, late 1930s

In 1940 the pastor at Waldersbach, Jean-Michel Beltrando, presented the Oberlin College president, Ernest Hatch Wilkins, with a photograph album he had assembled with captioned photographs of the parish. This was likely on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of Oberlin's birth. Presented here are a few of the pages; the entire album can be viewed at the John Frederick Oberlin Digital Collection (Oberlin College Archives).
