Loretta, I have a lot of those boxes - my own old unidentified ones
included - of my parents and grandparents. Some are written on, but
many are not.

My cousin, she knows who she is <g> out there, took some of Nanna's
albums last year and made a flip album cd for me and now that my
computer is fixed I can go through them. So those are safely taken care
of. If only I could get my brain and computer wrapped around the
scanner and other items to get the work done on my own things!

There is so much work to do and I need to get at it! :-)
Happy Holidays everyone!

Peg

I had some film moved to disk and was so broken hearted to find how
bad it had gotten. Saved it with out editing it. now I am ready to
have it edited I got a new computer a few weeks ago an am on a mission
to get all these boxes of pictures sorted. ( mine , my mothers and my
grandmothers. )So sad that these pictures do not have names on them.
Sent some copies off to family to see if they can tell me who it is..
Hope every one is trying to get there pictures and treasures marked as
some day there will not be some one there to help you find out where it
came from or who gave it . I asked my mother to record some stories for
me but she never did. Such a lose It would have been so nice to have
the answers to some of the questions I am asking now

Loretta
