Hi everyone

I've been busy this last week setting up a new corner of
Olive Tree Genealogy.I call it "Lost Faces -Old Photo
Albums Found & Rescued"

One of my hobbies is going to flea markets and garage
sales. Whenever I spot one of those old Photo Albums from
the 1800s with family pictures, I have to buy it! I can't
bear the thought that the album and photos will be lost or
destroyed. Even though they aren't my ancestors, and they
can be very expensive, I can't walk away without it.

What I'm doing with Lost Faces is putting online the list
of all the albums I have saved, along with the list of
photos and other documents (I have albums that contain
funeral cards, memorial cards, obituaries, Christmas cards,
and hand-written genealogies) and any research I've done on
the family. I've also put up some of the photos

I hope that by putting this online, descendants will find a
treasure.

http://www.rootsweb.com/~ote/faces/ is the little intro to
this new corner of OTG. Read to the bottom and then choose
the "List of Family Photo Albums"
