FOUR KING'S PHOTO FAMILY REUNION

In my travels, I see family photos lost in antique shops.
I think this is sad, so I decided to do something about it.
So I bought every family photo that I can find with a surname on it and
set up a website so that the descendants of these people can reclaim
their lost loved ones.
For four years I have been doing this and I am linked up with
genealogical sites and photo sites.
I have been able to help many people.
Now I hope to help the researchers with ties to Pennsylvania.

My work on this project is charity not commercial in nature. I put all
of the photos on-line so the people can download them for free. Or if
they want to purchase the original photo I charge them a nominal fee.

Below I have listed the Pennsylvania connected photographs.
Please visit my website at http://fourkings.freeyellow.com/Page3.html
to view the photos or check for other surnames.
I hope I can help you find a lost loved one.

But remember, the names are copied as handwritten on the photo. So
the spelling may be Very, Very wrong. So consider all near misses as a
possible hit and the location is where the picture was taken. The
person may not have lived in the location given but had a photo taken
while visiting there.
