Hidalgo County Historical Commission Collection - Archives Alert
Joint project between the Hidalgo County Historical Society and Hidalgo County Historical Commission. The Archives Alert project held sessions at various locations around Hidalgo County during which people were encouraged to come and lend photographs and other materials to be copied: one (1) print negative and two (2) slide copies were made. Cards for each person were filled out.
The original photographs / materials were returned to the original owners.
Printing is not supported at the primary Gallery Thumbnail page. Please first navigate to a specific Image before printing.
