About

Synopsis

A home movie filmed by Garmon Winckler on a Crown 8-T3 8mm camera of the Winckler children opening Christmas presents. Later, there is footage of a trip to Reptile Gardens.

Collection Description

This film (Winckler_0010) is part of the Garmon Winckler Family Films and Audio Collection.

“Many of the films in this collection are that of family vacations, which were primarily recorded in two of North Dakota's prime destinations at the time: Medora and the International Peace Garden. These two regions were common destinations for low-to-middle income families from North Dakota during this period. The International Peace Garden and Medora were in their developmental stages at the time of this footage and are quite different than they are now.

Other reels depict a camping trip with my grandparents, travels to my aunt and uncle's ranch in the Bitterroot Valley of Western Montana, family gatherings, Christmas and birthday parties in Mandan, North Dakota, Glen Ullin, North Dakota and rural Denhoff, North Dakota. The collection also includes my parents' wedding day in Mandan, North Dakota 1965. Fashion of the day is well represented.

All of the individuals depicted in the footage were either living in North Dakota or were originally from North Dakota. Our families were traditional Germans from Russia only one generation removed from their North Dakota homesteading parents. German was still commonly heard at these family gatherings. My Grandma Winckler is in the footage and she was an ethnic German born in South Russia (now Ukraine). She immigrated to the Glen Ullin, North Dakota area in 1910 at age 10 with her family. Germans from Russia family life was close knit with many family activities to keep the bonds tight.” ~ Joel Winckler
