Description

Originally from Jay, and later Greene, Maine, William Bergeron’s (1892-1947) parents were Franco from Quebec. Photographers often made portraits showing the sitter with the tools of their work, or sometimes used props. In this case, Bergeron might have played the banjo professionally, though it is not a traditional instrument in Franco music.
