I’m amazed by the old photos from this “cousin’s” collection. Even if it sounds cliche, they are a window to the past. I loved looking at the clothes from the 1860’s and 1870’s. They look different than how they were interpreted 60 years later in “Gone With the Wind”. It’s interesting to study the faces to similarities to try to pair people up into family groups. 40 photos are now on the website and ready for identification. I hate to think of all the family history and old photos getting thrown out, lost or left in a drawer– that was a motivation to start the website. I don’t want to be the only one who has these photos so I’ve put 300dpi (print quality) files on Shutterfly.com. Shutterfly is reasonably priced, great quality, not too hard to figure out. Whomever wants prints of the photos now will have access to them! SEE PHOTOS
