Mystery Photographs
Being an unabashed
sentimentalist, I buy photographs of unknown people with the hope of someday finding
someone who's related to the people in these pictures. If any of these people look
familiar, just email me and I will gladly send
you the photo in question.
If you would like to add an unknown (or known) ancestor to this "mystery photo"
gallery, please email me!
Only together can we identify our ancestors!
