https://collections.ushmm.org/findingaids/2015.255.1_01_fnd_en.pdf
Here are the most relevant files:
Morgenthau Family Papers, US Holocaust Memorial Museum, Series 1: Family papers 1860-2006, File 145: Television Projects Set in Jamaica 1955-1956, 2 folders [Note: has perhaps only the first folder been made visible in error? There is no obvious divide in the digital scans.]
Series 9, File 53 contains photographs of Jamaica taken circa 1955, which looks like it could be part of the research and scouting for the series.
