Meet my great-grandparents

When I was in Tennessee visiting my grandmother and my mother and aunt, we talked about a lot of things from my family's past. My grandmother had somewhere close to 100 old photographs that had been pasted onto a sheet of masonite, which she kept on the wall at the head of her bed.

Some of these photographs were of her as a child, of my mother and aunt as children, and of the grandkids. Others were of my grandfather, and quite a few I have no idea about.

I've spent the day so far scanning these photographs and cleaning them up a bit. This photograph wasn't on that set, but it was one that I was given to scan as well.

This is my great–grandfather and great–grandmother on their wedding day.

That is so great! I took my mother's albums and have been scanning them and cleaning them up. She's wanting me to give them back - I've only had them for about 2 years! I was scanning like crazy in the beginning and the last of them are still here and I need to finish them up. Family history can be fascinating.
