    3. Leona and the rest of you on this list, I have been buying and trying to get back to their owners any and all pictures that I can afford. At this moment I have the following that I cannot find the family. I will list them here and anyone that is connected to any of these family, and can convince me that you have a connection, I will send them to you for no cost. Ann I will put here what is written on the pictures and a small description of the pictures. 1. "Sophia Buck (Grandma)" "Winner", the "inner" is circled. This is a middle age lady and the picture is in a paper folder. I would say taken about 1900-1920. 2. "Fred Buck (Grandpa)" "Winer", the "inner" is circled. This matches the above picture and is written in the same hand. This man looks a bit like Bing Crosby. 3. "The Masters Family" A man and woman with 5 children rangeing from about 18 months to maybe as old as 15. It looks like 3 girls, a boy and the baby. The picture was made at Union Photo Co., Lineville, Iowa by ?nts & Priegel. 4. "Christian Gilomens parents" Middle age couple, Man has long hair and a beard and both are "pleasantly plump". This picture was made by J. Leutwiler in St. Jacob, MO. 5. "Vernel Helen Hoffmann born Sept 4th 1920, Taken Jan 4th 1921" This is on a post card and of couse it is of an infant. The baby is dressed in a knit sweater outfit with a cap. 6. "Helen & Al Neulist" This was taken at 3414-A California Ave, St. Louis -----Original Message----- From: Leona Headley [mailto:lheadley@cottagesoft.com] Sent: Tuesday, July 09, 2002 6:39 PM To: MOJASPER-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [MOJASPER] Lost photo album's > Sorry folks, just re read my message about my lost photos and realized that although I > gave the details about the auction; where, when, etc. I neglected to give the name of the I wish I could help with this lady. But it does bring back something from a few years ago. I was at a local flea market and came across the guy selling some picture albums. I found a few I wanted to look at and gave the guy 50 cents an album. I don't remember how many I had gotten. When I had gotten them home I went over them and even found old letter's and cards. I searched on the internet found one family member who still lived at the same home. I was in Oklahoma, she was in Illinois. I told her what I had found. She was very excited. She didn't even know how they came to be in Oklahoma. They where from her husband family. I sent her all the albums and only asked for the postage back. Which she did send. So to all, I would like to say, "When ever you are out at garage sale or flea markets, look to see if you can find ones lost pictures and return try to see if you can return them." The feeling you get will stay with you forever. Leona J. Headley
