David L. Hunsberger Collection

Date of creation: November 1940s-1980s

Thousands of photographs and/or negatives

David L. Hunsberger (4 June 1928-6 January 2005) was the son of Noah and Minnie Hunsberger. Noah was the minister at Erb St. Mennonite Church for many years. When David was 14 they moved to St. Jacobs, where David lived for 55 years. In 1956 he married Katherine (Kate) Nafziger; they had three sons and one daughter. He was a professional photographer in the village for most of those years.

This collection, donated by the family to the Mennonite Archives of Ontario in 2005, was incorporated into the Archives Photo database. They are located in a series labelled DH and represent almost 5700 images.

Thirty slides are housed with other slides under HM10.28.1 - HM10.28-30. They are indexed as part of the photo database.
