240 glass negatives (approximate; in 2 boxes) — 0.5 linear feet (contact prints and collected information)

Resident of Ypsilanti Township, Michigan. Collection consists of glass negatives and contact prints depicting farm life, the Fuller family and their neighbors and relatives, recreation, houses, and barns

This collection of visual images taken by Ella Fuller who was not a professional photographer provide a unique glimpse of daily rural life. Through her camera, Fuller recorded the activities of family and acquaintances. She had a natural talent to capture people as they were, at work and at play, thoughtful, interested in what they were doing. As May Davis Hill wrote, "The Fuller photographs provide an unselfconscious, direct view of rural life in a seemingly idyllic period. Reflecting a genre quality, the images record ordinary scenes from everyday life."
