Unknown 2021-01-1135.
Share a group of old photos from Fuzhou 65438 to 0900. This group of photos mainly took photos of Manchu officials in Fuzhou at that time and several local children in Fuzhou.
In the past, few photos were taken specifically for children, especially this group. The photos were taken by the church staff in Fuzhou at that time and passed down, and are currently collected at the University of California.
Is there "1900" on the back of the picture? Americans and Manchu officials in Fuzhou. I learned that the image was shot at 1900, by Manchu officials in Fuzhou and American Methodist missionaries.
The name of the specific person is unknown.
Manchu officials in Fuzhou, from the perspective of Buzi, are civil servants. Without verifiable materials and images, it is impossible to determine this person's name.
The following photos are mainly of Fuzhou local children at 1900:
This is a girl with a big family, and even an institution, which is very rare.
Children in small families are relatively simple to dress up.
Through this group of photos, we can understand the mental outlook, hairstyle and dressing style of children in Fuzhou and its surrounding areas in the late Qing Dynasty.

The shaving ceremony of that era seemed so pious and formal. Anyone who becomes a monk must shave his hair, which is called tonsure in Buddhism. There are many conditions for becoming a nun, such as personal will, family consent, no debt, good facial features and so on. This may not be possible in practice, but Buddhism requires it.
Those who are interested in becoming monks must first get in touch with the temple and ask a monk to be their "teacher" in the temple. After the understanding and consent of the monks in the whole temple, the temple can then accept this person as a disciple, shave off his beard and give the novice monk a ring (* * * has ten rings), which is called "novice monk".

After the time entered 1927, the natural disasters in Shandong were unusually aggravated, which were as follows: first, all kinds of disasters gathered, followed by floods and droughts and locusts; Second, it lasts for a long time, from 1927 to 1930, and it is not a major disaster every year; Third, the disaster is serious. It is estimated that by April of 1928, there were more than 1000 million people in need of assistance in Shandong, accounting for about a quarter of the province's population, and there were two or three million people who could not live without assistance.
During the great famine in Shandong from 65438 to 0927, a large number of victims from all over Shandong fled to Jinan, Qingdao and other big cities to find a way out. At that time, the pastor in cheeloo university, Shandong Province took a batch of photos of refugees who fled to cheeloo university, Jinan during 1927 and 1928, and now they are collected in the Library of the University of Southern California and the Library of Congress. These photos are of great reference value for the reproduction and study of that period of history, and also highlight the preciousness of these photos.
This group of photos is selected here, which mainly reflects the bleak living conditions of the people who fled during the Great Famine in Shandong at that time and some relief activities of the Relief Committee.
