Collection Description: A collection of black-and-white photographs primarily of the Loeb, Wolf, and Heimann families. These Jewish families immigrated from Germany and settled at Van Eeden (Eden) in Pender County North Carolina in the late 1930s. The photographs were made circa 1939-40, at or near Van Eeden.
The images include interior and exterior views of homes, family and domestic scenes, farmers working in the fields, farm animals, children at school and on a school bus, school classrooms, and children at play.
The collection includes, in addition to the photographs, a few newspaper clippings, and letters written mostly in the 1990s by persons who lived at or visited Van Eeden. The manuscript material was collected and given to the North Carolina Collection by Susan Block of Wilmington, N. C.
