It is very interesting to see where your family lived in the 1930's, what their property was worth or where their parents were from. You might even see that they could read or write english. Each decade of records in the ancestry site offers different information on the families so it is amazing what you can find from the past.Tuesday, June 2, 2009
Heritage Scrapbooking
What can I say these photos are absolutely priceless. The boy standing in the buggy is my father who was born in 1946. He appears to be about 6 yrs old in the photo. Our family is from Philadelphia Pennsylvania and they were mennonites, this is the only photo I found that would support their background. Kind of interesting. I had to share this photo with anyone who is interested in genealogy. A great way to dig up old family history is on http://www.ancestry.com/ there is a fee but if you visit your local library you can do your family searches for free.
