    1. Free Over 2000 Images of Schools from all over U.S. Free Site
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Jg.2ADI/1357 Message Board Post: If you ever wanted a picture of any of the schools your ancestors attended, this may be your chance. I just added a page of over 2,000 images of various schools from all over the U.S. The page is hosted by www.family-images.com at <a href=http://www.family-images.com/contents.htm>WWW.Family-Images.Com</a> and just click on the Miscellaneous Schools Page. Please note that there is no real order to the listing so you will have to use the "Search and Find" Options of your browser or just plain or browse the listings to find schools of interest to you. I am looking for some volunteers to rename the images so I can better organize them but I have so many images to get online, I can't take the time to rename them all myself. I figure it is better to get the images online where people can find them. If you have something not listed or a better or different view of a school or anything else, feel free to share it with our visitors. I have tens of thousands of images to get online but am always happy to add anything you think the visitors might like. I have over 1,000 church images to add if I can ever get to scanning them all. I would also like some feedback on what genealogists want images of. For instance, what images would you like to add to your family history scrapbook? I assume anything relating to your ancestors, and the towns they lived in, but would you want to have an image of the school or church they attended? Are you looking for pictures of where they were employed, where they may have spent days off with the family like amusement parks, lakes, etc.? Do you want to see images of towns or buildings after disasters, etc. to see what the people had to overcome to get on with their lives? What kind of images are important to your family history scrapbooks? Maybe I will make up a poll and post it on the site to collect your responses. Please visit this collection and I hope you find something of interest. Feel free to spread this link around. Mike
