Disclaimer
I am an Amateur Historian, and Genealogist.
I use every source I can find, old newspapers, census, archives,
etc.
I do a quick search for the names on these pages.
Therefore I do NOT profess to have 100% accurate information.
Use my info as a clue to do your own research.
I am not related to these folks, nor do I have hidden info.
I encourage everyone to visit their local Museum,
or buy a local history book for more info.
I attempt to connect people with their ancestor in these places.
If it works on just one person, per page, it is worth the time it
takes me.

Please "link" to my

A "link" to my pages, does the same thing.
Just copy the hyper link, URL, shown in your browser above,

That is the honest and descent way to to do it!
Duplicates online?
Note- You will see some of the same pictures,
on other Archive / Museum sites online.
(Without my watermarks, and copyright information obviously.)
Reason- Most of these photos were commercial postcards,
and multi copies were made and sold.
All have different writing on the back is the difference.
I don't include all the backs to save bandwidth, but have them in my data.
Trust me, I DO NOT STEAL ARCHIVE PHOTOS!
I hope they, and others, Do NOT Steal mine!
