The George J. Mehok Photograph Collection is divided into three series: Mehok Family, Subject Files and Albums.
The Mehok Family Series includes early family photographs of the Mehoks, some taken in 1937 in Dresden N.D. when George Jr. was ordained. The series contains images of George Sr., Teresa, George Jr., William, and Charles Mehok. There are also formal portraits of George Jr. and William.
The Subject Files include photographs of George Jr.’s friends and colleagues, a portrait of Bishop William Mulloy, and photographs of Mehok’s trip to Israel, Rome, and Egypt in 1952. Also included are postcards from Hope, N.D., Dresden, N.D., and Wahpeton, N.D. depicting an early baseball game in Hope, the historical Catholic Church in Dresden, and a fire in Wahpeton. There are also several photographs of the January 1946 blizzard in Hope and Sacred Heart Academy in Fargo.
The Album Series includes four albums. The 50th Jubilee album contains color photographs of Father George Mehok’s anniversary and retirement in Wahpeton, N.D. in 1987, as well as of a golf tournament. The album also has a photograph of Fargo Diocese Bishop Sullivan. The Mehok album has early images of George’s years at Nazareth Hall in St. Paul, Minnesota; the 25th Anniversary album documents Father Mehok’s silver anniversary in the ministry at Wahpeton, N.D. The family snapshots album includes photographs from 1938 to the mid-1940s. The snapshots are of Mehok’s parents, brothers, friends, and colleagues.
