    1. [ENG-DURHAM] Labelling Family photographs
    2. Janet Hopkins
    3. Hi Listers! I was in an antique shop last weekend, and there were packs of old family photos in there. I bought one, as the photograph had the person's name on it. I was able to identify the man on the internet, because he had a rare name. I put out a posting on the board for that surname, so I can return it to the family. Please make sure the people in your family photos are identified! If you are the genealogist in the family, your family may not know who the folks are after you are gone. I know we aren't supposed to write on the backs of photographs, but maybe a postit note on the back side of it. Can any listers recommend the best way to label photos for posterity?
