Savannah, Ga.) Photographs Foltz Photography Studio (Savannah, Ga.) photographs Descriptive Summary Repository: Georgia Historical Society Creator: Cordray, Augusta Klask, 1900-1971. Creator: Foltz, George Raymond, approximately 1881-1957. Title: Foltz Photography Studio (Savannah, Ga.) photographs Dates: 1899-1960 Extent: 40.05 cubic feet (83 boxes) Identification: MS 1360 Biographical/Historical Note The Foltz Photography Studio in Savannah, Georgia was established by George Raymond Foltz (circa 1881-1957), a native of Shamokin, Pennsylvania. Foltz came to Savannah in 1899 from Atlantic City, New Jersey, where he was associated with the boardwalk photography studio of Harry Phillips. His Savannah business was known as Franklin and Foltz (116 Bull Street) in 1900, then Foltz and Co. in 1901. In 1915, Foltz moved the studio to 240 Bull Street. He relocated the business again in 1917, to 10 West Broughton Street, where it remained until 1954, known during this time as Foltz Studio and as Foltz Photography. Between 1954 and 1965, the studio was operated at 30 West Broughton Street. Foltz retired in 1949, and the business was acquired by Augusta Klask Cordray (Mrs. Arthur A., 1900-1971), a native of Bonn, Germany. George Foltz died in 1957 and was survived by his wife, Robena Wilson Foltz, and three brothers. Mrs. Cordray, who had worked for Foltz since the 1920's, continued to operate the studio under the names, Foltz Photography and Foltz Studio until her retirement in the 1960's. After the studio closed in 1965, Mrs. Cordray donated the studio's photograph collection to the Georgia Historical Society. Scope and Content Note This collection consists of photographic prints and negatives (including glass negatives) produced by the Foltz Photography Studio in Savannah, Georgia, primarily depicting the Savannah/Chatham County, Georgia area from the early 1900's up to 1960. Foltz did some copy photography, thus, there are a few photographs of images that pre-date the time his work began in Savannah. Subject areas depicted include: agriculture; cotton gins; farms; plantations; animals; cattle; rabbits; architectural elements; fireplaces; art; buildings; asylums and homes; auditoriums; churches; City and Town Halls; convents; courthouses; customs houses; fire stations; galleries and museums; hospitals; veterinary hospitals; jails; libraries; opticians; orphanages; police departments; post offices; sanatoriums; schools; synagogues; theaters; transient bureaus; universities and colleges; business enterprises; advertisements; banks; hotels; markets; merchants exchanges; restaurants and bars; stores; communication; radios; telephones; dwellings; apartment houses; cabins; housing projects; interiors; named houses; unidentified houses; street views; events; baptisms; beauty contests; circuses; contests; fairs; festivals; holidays; pageants; parades; picnics; theatrical productions; furniture; fires; geographical locations; archaeological sites; cemeteries; cities and towns; counties; forests; gardens; historical markers; historical trees; islands; parks; public squares; states; wetlands; unidentified landscapes; industry; beverage; boat and ship; chemical; food; iron; lumber; motion pictures; naval stores; paper; petroleum; steel; tobacco; utilities; machinery; maps.

Names houses included in the collection are: Andrew Low (Colonial Dames Headquarters, 329 Abercorn); Bulloch- Habersham (Barnard St., demolished); Cranston (Perry at Drayton St., demolished); Green-Meldrim (14 W. Macon St.); Houstoun-Johnson-Screven (Abercorn at Congress St., demolished); Hunter-Mackay (125 E. Congress St.); Joseph Stiles (Yamacraw, demolished); Marshall (163 W.

Oglethorpe; Ave.), including photos of ironwork and views taken during the time it was the Savannah Female Orphan Asylum. Some of the photographs may be attributed to the work of Will Bond, a combat photographer during World War II. Bond attended Savannah schools and began working with Foltz in 1937. He managed the commercial business when Foltz retired and later established his own Savannah photography studio. The negatives are restricted from patron use.

  • The Squares of Savannah Luciana Spracher, Municipal Archives Director City of Savannah
    The Squares of Savannah Luciana Spracher, Municipal Archives Director City of Savannah The Original Six Squares Upon establishing the settlement of Savannah in 1733, General James Oglethorpe laid out a unique town plan utilizing a grid system composed of building blocks called wards. Each ward included a central square surrounded by four tythings divided into 10 building lots for residences, and four trust lots reserved for the town’s public buildings. The central squares have always been public spaces, but they have fulfilled a variety of functions over time, evolving into the lush urban forest Savannah is known for today. 1. Johnson Square was Savannah’s first square, laid out in 1733 by General Oglethorpe, and named for South Carolina Governor Robert Johnson, who provided aid to the colonists. The cornerstone for the fifty-foot obelisk honoring Revolutionary War hero Nathanael Greene was laid in 1825 by the Marquis de Lafayette. 2. Wright Square was selected by Oglethorpe as the final resting place for Tomochichi, chief of the local Yamacraw tribe, as a sign of his importance to Savannah. Today a monument of Georgia granite in the southeast corner honors this important leader in Savannah’s history, as does the Tomochichi Federal Courthouse overlooking what is also called “courthouse square.” 3. Ellis Square was home to a series of public markets until 1954 when the last City Market building was demolished for a parking garage, helping to spark Savannah’s world-famous historic preservation movement. Ellis Square has since been rehabilitated into a new outdoor public space, serving as an anchor for the surrounding City Market district 4.
