Old Family Photographs and Restorations

My wife and I recently moved my dad to an assisted living center close to us. I found and brought home all of the family pictures over the years. Additions will be made to the gallery as I get them scanned and restored.

The dates are approximate unless listed as specific.

Jennifer... BB Greenwood was my mother's grandfather. Would like to talk to you! sherri_960@hotmail.com

BBG is my great great grandfather, too. His daughter Mrs Harry McArdle was my grandmother's mother.

He viajado a través del tiempo y vuelto a recordar aquellos días. Hoy he vuelto a nacer en México, en otra ciudad, con otra gente y con un cuerpo y nombre diferente. Pero he vuelto a recordar Michael. Ahora todos están muertos y no desean regresar. Deberías conservar sus fotografías y compartirlas con nuestros descendientes....

Very interesting gallery, I love old family fots and good work on the restoration..:>

I treasure old photographs and am dismayed to see so many sold at estate sales... either there is no family remaining or no one cares. Thanks for sharing...

Michael, I'm glad I ran across this! I especially liked finding a little bit of you in everyone of these pictures. Great job on the whole gallery!

Michael, thanks for posting the pictures. I really enjoyed seeing them. George Everett Belew was my Grandmothers Nephew. She was Martha Belew daughter of Jonathan & Annis Kelton Belew.

This is a wonderful thing. I liked making the connections as I went along.
This archive is a wonderful gift for your family as well. I hope they appreciate it.

Mike, these are great. I especially love looking at the folks I know. In the picture of the Chapman men, who is the fellow on the left? Looks exactly like Charles but I'm thinking he's not that old.

VERY COOL THAT YOU HAVE THE OLD PICTURES I AM IN THE PROCESS OF TRYING TO FIND SOME OF MY FAMILY.
Tom 06-Mar-2005 05:17
Good job!
This is what I want to be able to do with all of my old family photographs but I have not figured how to put the text under the photos yet

Michael. Congratulations on taking on this project. I completed a similar project a year or so ago and I have to say that it changed my life. Sounds dramatic but it really is a significant undertaking. Lots of work and lots of rewards!!! Hey, take care. I'm off to look at some of your other work. Daniel.
