Thanks for the work in trying to reunite family heirlooms with descendants of the original owner. I'm a recipient of a family heirloom which was recovered. Although the family heirloom was not reunited with me through this website I always take the time to thank those I find out there doing this type of work.
ReplyDeleteIn my case, I was reunited with a 19th century photo album. It has a lot of pictures, but most are unidentified. I've been able to identify a few, but not nearly all.
Regards, Jim

Thanks for the validation, Jim! As to the album, you might want to check with Google Images, in the hopes that someone has uploaded similar photos, with IDs, in the past. Worth a shot.
