  • Old Photos

    Does anyone know of a society or website that would be interested in some old photos? I have in my posession about a dozen or so pics that belonged to my step-grandfather. I have no interest in tracing his tree, and these photos are of people in the late 1800s maybe, and certainly very early 1900s, however I don't want them to die a death in the back of a cupboard never to be seen again.

    I would think any family history society or archives office would love it.

    Where do you live? Someone on here is sure to know a place.

      I live in Fareham, Hampshire. Just been looking at the photos again, they are really fascinating. I will have to have a look around the web for some free face recognition software to see if any of them are of the same people at various times. If anyone has a genuine interest in them and can put them to good use, I am willing to part with them.

          They are not my family. After my maternal nan died, my step-grandfather didn't want anything to do with my nan's family. I just dont want these fantastic photos to go unloved. They need a good home.

            That's such a shame Jules ... may we see them before you part with them ?

            They might be useful on the FTF Costume Gallery

              I've just finished scanning them so will put them up in a little while.
