Notes from several Books: As I have journeyed thru the project of scanning all of these pictures and documents, a task not yet completed, one of the consistencies that has appeared time after time is the fact that in almost every picture Dad is smiling, evidence that he was one happy fellow loving life….. and […]

These pictures were taken from the album pictured below: This album is made up of 2 pictures on a page…the kind of page which has a sorta sticky surface. My usual instinct is to get the pictures out of such a page as it generally will cause damage over time, However, this needs […]

A note or 2 on the Norse: Sandy expressed some interest in the Norse connection so I thought I’d add some detail here since all of the data has not yet been added into the Family Tree. It is taking some time to flesh out the details due to overlap that exists with what has […]
While I was laid off for some 6 months, I rekindled my long time interest in family genealogy, an interest that I got from my Mother who started this in the 1930’s when she was a teenager.My Mother had an interest in becoming a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution which requires that […]
This book presented a few unusual challenges. The pictures were placed into one of those “stick-down” albums and supplemented by a lot of notes made by Mom. The pages were bound in a spiral binder that was broken from the binder itself. The spiral plastic was rotted and seriously discolored. I had to disassemble it […]

These pictures come from a near complete album of pictures. Some of the first scans were difficult to make and the plastic sleeves in which the pictures are stored is apparent. It was not possible to pull each of the pictures from the sleeves as some were stuck down. There are some really special pictures […]

Well, This is too much fun to be omitted. While I was cleaning out some old backups I made on CD’s & DVD’s, I stumbled onto the pictures taken when the whole family went to Bethany for a week vacation together. These were not in Dad’s pictures but I just had to add it. The […]

This album was rather difficult to work from as it was put together using one of those “self-stick” type of album pages. Over time (and this was about 20+ years), the pictures had become seriously glues to the pages and were becoming discolored as a result. I’ve seen this before so I removed all the […]
