Black-and-white portrait of an older man seated on a porch, holding a light-colored hat across his lap.

Posted to Beaver Island Historical Society (Facebook page) by Beaver Island Historical Society on 2019-09-03 14:05:20. Caption as posted: "From the BIHS Oral History Archives - A 1991 interview with Winifred 'Winnie' LaFreniere McDonough (1920-2009) recalling the late Joe Burke (1857-1946), pictured here on the porch of his home of nearly fifty years, which later became the Mormon Print Shop Museum: "... I have up here a picture of Joe Burke; and he had built the Christian Brothers Place on the island... for John Maloney... Joe Burke's wife Rose... was a sister to Johnny Maloney, and so he built the Christian Brothers, and I don't know if he took much (pay) for that either... ... (he) lived over there in the... historical build"

Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

An older man sits cross-legged on a wooden stool on a porch, holding a light-colored hat with a dark band. He wears a dark shirt, trousers, suspenders, and laced work boots. Horizontal siding, a window, and a round porch column are visible behind and beside him.

A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

Taken from the record

Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.

The archive caption identifies the sitter as Joe Burke (1857–1946) and states that the photograph was posted by the Beaver Island Historical Society on September 3, 2019. It associates the image with an oral-history interview with Winifred “Winnie” LaFreniere McDonough and claims the porch was at Burke’s longtime home, later the Mormon Print Shop Museum.

Why this archive publishes it. Public Facebook groups and pages run by island organisations and residents. Each item credits the poster by name and links to the original post. Removal on request.

Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.

Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.

The archive holds its own copy of that file and will supply it on request; it is not re-served here, because the holder serves it better and a second copy is a second thing to go stale.
