Attention, all you Lowell historians: The Library of Congress needs your
help in identifying vintage Mill City photographs.

A half-dozen old photos of Lowell are among more than 3,000 digital images
the national library has posted on the popular online photo-sharing service
Flickr, and viewers are asked to comment on them. The pictures come from the
archives of the Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information and
the George Grantham Bain News Service.

The library wants to gather as much information as possible. To view the
photos on Flickr, go to www.flickr.com/photos/Library_of_Congress. To
identify and comment on the photos, you will need to sign up for a Flickr
account. Or, you may send comments directly to the library at
www.loc.gov/rr/print/catdataform.php.

Subject: [MAMiddle] "Old Photos" of Lowell in Newspaper

Hello,

In this morning's "Lowell Sun" they have "old photos" which the Library of
Congress is releasing. They are asking for the public's help to identify

the people in the photos.

www.lowellsun.com

I just checked the on-line version of the newspaper and you can't see the
photos - there - but you can see them IF you have FLICKR,

http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=Lowell&w=8623220%40N02

Or, perhaps you can go to the web site for the Library of Congress / Photos
and search for "Lowell."

Actually, I just went to the web site and see you have to use FLICKR to see
the photos there.

(Is anyone researching the CORKILL, CORKHILL, or COCKILL name ?)
