Yesterday as we were driving to the coast and passed the Lincoln line, I shared about your work with my student who was with me, and all I have enjoyed learning from your work through your blog.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words. Keep stopping by, I always enjoy the company.
DeleteYou were FORTUNATE enough to find a picture of an ancestor in the library? I've said it before..."oh to have pictures."
ReplyDeleteThe library acquired the photographs after the death of the photographer. He took pictures of the locals over several decades.
DeleteI wish more of those photograph collections would make it to a library or museum.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, Please keep the great stuff coming. Thanks!
