This Blog focuses on Ancestor Stories, both the stories themselves about my family’s ancestors and discussions of where they come from and how to prepare and share them. These stories may be non-fiction or fiction – we will always tell which is which, of course. Also see my KINNICK blog and The HOMEPLACE Series Blog, left sidebar, scroll down.

Accentuate the Positive 2012 Geneameme - New Ancestor Photo
Accentuate the Positive 2012 Geneameme - New Ancestor Photo
I held off writing anything in way of a retrospective on 2012 until I came across Jill, of her Geniaus blog, where she suggested we: "Accentuate the Positive 2012." I liked that!
So, here is my second item (first was posted yesterday), looking at her Item 2: A precious family photo I found - actually, was shared with me by a cousin… ;-)
Photo of Second Great Grandmother Ann Eliza Duncan Williams
As noted, throughout the year, at various times, Ellen provided a number of noteworthy family photos that I had not seen before. I thank her, again, very much! ;-)
Families are Forever! ;-)

Is that a photo or a drawing? What year do you think it was taken?
ReplyDeleteShe died 1879 at age 37... early photo... of some type. I've wondered, as well... ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a very early photo. I help people start their family trees and have seen many old photos and have learned to discern between an actual photo and drawings. I had someone argue with me about one of their ancestors "photos" (he died in 1798), the client swore it was a photo and I had to give him the facts of why it was a painting/drawing. Great post and photos. Those are gems when you find them. http://goo.gl/yKAyB
ReplyDeleteThanks for your view. I agree. I'll leave your URL up. Usually don't. Thanks, again! ;-)
