I've a scanning job to do. I now have my great-grandma's photo collection. Plenty of photos from the early 1900's, some even from late 1800's and some from the Finnish Civil War (1918). Very sadly my great-grandma's sight failed years before she passed away in 2000 and we never got round to putting names to all the people in the photos. We tried once, sitting at her tiny kitchen table, I describing the pictures and she trying to remember who was who - she could not see the photos anymore but was able to remember them still quite well. Still, many of the photos remained unrecognized.

So if you have historical family photos and someone who remembers who is in them and what the occasion was, do write it down! One day you'll probably want to know; it's family history...

You have a normal feeling for a moment, then it passes. --More--
