Hi Dan I'm glad to hear from you. It would be great to add New London cards! My uncle Steve White lived there as well as others, Lindahls, Stam, Hultgren, etc. I also indexed the Kandiyohi Historical Society book on New London. Scanners are cheap these days but if you want I could scan them for you. I live in Minneapolis. I also have had success using a digital camera, 4 megapixel, outside lighting. There is a max upload per month w free/basic account. I probably will upgrade to $25 yr unlimited storage. I have many myself. I will post photo of Uncle Steve's house on Kandiyohi County Photo Club. Let me know how I can help you.

What a great idea! We have many letters talking about Auntie's cottage at Green Lake. Having seen those photos makes it seem more real. And there are so many great old postcards out there (we have many from other parts of MN, but I don't think Kandiyohi), I hope many others start similar sites! Thanks for starting this one.
