Looking at old photos


How precious are old photos saved by our grandmothers in antique scrapbooks and albums usually without captions. How important to ask them while they are still around who, when and what then label each priceless memory so we can share the photos with others. My hubby has a special Texas cousin who is a lifelong genealogist and has preserved the stories and images of her Forrest kinfolk. Let's hear it for cousin Amelia in Gatesville, Texas!
