Because no comprehensive list of campers and staff was ever maintained -- and, indeed, address lists were not regularly included as a feature of the Islander until the mid-1950s --, this roster is a reconstruction based on existing address lists and names drawn from the text of the Islander.
To complicate matters further, no complete collection of the Islander exists. The years respresented in Lew Bigelow's files in the camp office include the following: 1930-33, 1935, 1937-40, an issue labelled "1942-44?," 1951, 1954-1968. There is an additional undated issue which may be from the late '30s or early 40s.
Needless to say, because any such reconstruction is bound to be imperfect, I welcome corrections of names, dates, and spellings, as well as copies of Islanders for missing years. These should be e-mailed to <pd_hall@harvard.edu>
Finally, I am completing an additional roster which lists campers and staff by year. This can be accessed by clicking this link rosterxyear.html
