Hello all, What I did with the old pictures of my family that I had no idea who they were...(They were in a DEEMS family album, from MD to NYC c1834). With a 35mm camera, tripod, & close up lens...I made pictures of the pictures. This gives you a negative with which I made copies and sent to relatives of that family. Those pictures I sent out went all over the US and some of the other family members were able to Identify some of them.. Don't forget that some of those pictures were used as "business cards" so-to-speak. When a person came-a callin' they would hand you a small picture of themselves as if to say remember I was here. Best of luck. Dave By the way...I'm searching GENTRY & HECTOR families from Salem. Gloucester, & Cumberland Co's., NJ
