Greek Families, Culture, Religion, Immigration and Business

 Series

Scope and Contents

From the Collection: The images in this collection document the ever changing quality of life for the Greek community of Salt Lake City from the turn of the century up to the mid-sixties. Several Greek families are represented in the collection by a large amount of personal family portraits as well as good documentation of businesses started by prominent figures in the early 1900s. Also featured are many images of places in Greece and the United States. Many of the photographs are originals dating back to 1911, but there are also copied images of earlier photographs. This collection will continue to grow in size and diversity.
