Photo of Buildings and Ground of Children's Home at Oxford, 1911

Have you find a relative who was at the Children’s Home at Oxford? You might want to contact/visit the Sallie Mae Ligon Museum and Archives and Masonic Home for Children at Oxford. Some of the collection is available online through Digital NC at: http://library.digitalnc.org/cdm/search/searchterm/Sallie%20Mae%20Ligon%20Museum%20&%20Archives%20&%20Masonic%20Home%20for%20Children%20at%20Oxford/mode/exact


This 1911 photo was taken by Walter Holladay for the Masonic Home. The buildings show the boys and girls cottages, shoe shop, print shop, and St. John’s building. Today, there is a museum for the children's home, and the home's archives are there. It is located at 600 College St., Oxford, N.C. 27565.
