Title A name given to the resource Serena Wadham Archive Description An account of the resource Serena Wadham (1930-2006) was a photojournalist who was based in Islington from the late 1960s until 1987, when she retired to Cornwall, spending her final years at Middle Georgia Farm, Nancledra, near St Ives. After her death her family presented a substantial collection of her negatives, contact sheets and prints, plus some press material and correspondence, to the Morrab Library in Penzance. In May 2008 an exhibition was held at the Library, curated by Robin Lenman, who has also compiled this catalogue. The bulk of the collection relates to Serena Wadham's activities in and around London. But the rest comprises Cornish themes such as early journalistic assignments, the landscape, neighbours and farming around Nancledra, and a 1990s campaign against the redevelopment of Hayle. The photographic prints have been subdivided into subject categories and are mostly stored in A4-format box files, numbered 1-18; negatives and contact prints (mostly in flat cardboard boxes, individually numbered), albums and some miscellaneous material, including larger-format items, are contained in large archival boxes, numbered I-VIII. The selection of c. 80 exhibition pictures, with mounts and captions, is held separately in an archival portfolio. Although some prints and contact sheets are captioned with information about subjects and people photographed, SW rarely included dates. However, she assiduously numbered negatives, contact sheets and some prints, and a selection of numbers have been given in the attached chronology.

Sampson Mitchell of Alma fame, hit her mainmast with the first rocket, and the exhausted, seasick Dutchmen, and a young English cabin boy fresh from training ship were landed. Captain de Grooth refused to leave until coastguards and a local doctor, who had gone out to attend a sailor prostrated with expourse and rum, showed him the wreck of the Seine. The Voorspoed, listing slightly to starboard, ebbed dry at noon, when stores, gear, clothes, and a stuffed alligator were landed by breeches-buoy. How and when the looting started was never determined, but Captain de Grooth later said, "I have been wrecked in different parts of the globe, even in the Fiji island, but never among such savages as those of Perranporth." Most of the blame fell on the Navvies working on the new GWR branch line from Chasewater to Newquay, though Perran men were seen on deck surrounded by the beach in aprons of local women. The Voorspoed, ex-Foxham, ex-Jan Derks, launched in 1892 by Neistern & Co of Martenshoek was refloated a fortnight later by the Falmouth tug Triton, but on her next voyage disappeared with all hands while bound for Newfoundland.

Sampson Mitchell of Alma fame, hit her mainmast with the first rocket, and the exhausted, seasick Dutchmen, and a young English cabin boy fresh from training ship were landed. Captain de Grooth refused to leave until coastguards and a local doctor, who had gone out to attend a sailor prostrated with expourse and rum, showed him the wreck of the Seine. The Voorspoed, listing slightly to starboard, ebbed dry at noon, when stores, gear, clothes, and a stuffed alligator were landed by breeches-buoy. How and when the looting started was never determined, but Captain de Grooth later said, "I have been wrecked in different parts of the globe, even in the Fiji island, but never among such savages as those of Perranporth."
