Contact
us if you have an interest in any of the photos in this album. Just
like our scrapbooks today, there are examples in our scrapbooks from the
early 1900s from our grandparents and parents and on to this day, so these
books have photos in them from the early 1800s on up. See if you know which
ones they are. We
encourage anyone to inform us (comment on) any of our images so that we can
pass on the knowledge.
We
are hopeful and prefer to find the descendants of this book. However
if someone shows an interest in these photo for any other reason than genealogy,
we will consider the opportunity to make better use of them. These photos
are interesting for many reasons. They are an opportunity to study for
photographic styles of the times, an interest to custom designers and home
decorators some times decorate with vintage photographs. Teachers can
direct students to see why or how we know so much about times past found in
photographs. They are also good for help in photo dating. Give us a
call. 619-397-7600.

photographs yourself. By repeatedly doing this you will learn. The
information about the photographers can also be a lead in the dating
process.
