The other page of ancestors pictures was from Dad’s side of the family, The Moores and Chambers. I figured the best way to get more fun old pictures was to ask for some for my birthday. It worked…
WOOHOO!
I got a photo album chock full of prints. Several pages of family history and notes on each picture. Mom really outdid herself this time, ain’t your parents retirement great!?
I also got a CD of the pictures. They were not professionally restored, so I saw all the imperfections that a century of wear and tear can do. Yeah, They were in pretty rough shape, especially the first two. So I restored them (unprofessionally restored, if you will). Considering I have near zero artistic talent they cleaned up pretty good.
