Lottie Belle West of Bacon's Castle, Virginia was born in 1901. From 1918 to 1919 she attended [then] State Female Normal
School and later taught school in Richmond, Virginia. She later returned to, by then, State Teachers College and earned her
bachelor's degree in 1936.
The scrapbook in this collection, which dates from 1918 to 1919, contains handwritten notes, ephemera, photographs, and other
memorabilia from Lottie West's initial period of time at the school. Additionally, the collection contains other pieces of
ephemera that were likely previously affixed to pages in the scrapbook. Lastly, this collection includes correspondence that
dates from 1918 to 1919 and 1937.
