I've "rescued" a group of family photographs including one of Robert SILVERNAIL taken at the Talbot Studio in Schenectady, New York. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1890's with Robert appearing to be in his 20's at the time. In addition to his name someone has written "Ed WORTH's cousin" on the back of the photograph. The photograph was recovered along with 21 other photographs belonging to the BORSTAD, HAGGERTY, and WORTH Families from Mobile, AL; Williamstown, MA; Providence, RI; New York City, NY; and North Adams, MA; I'm hoping to locate someone from the family so that the photographs can be returned to their rightful place with family. If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

Hello, Shelley, I'd suggest sending the photographs to the Schenectady County Historical Society. They take good care of photographs -- and other donations as well -- and keep well maintained surname files.

Just got back from vacation and saw this message. I have Silvernail ancestors from Columbia, Rensselaer and Schenectady Counties and surrounding areas. Did someone post a copy of a Silvernail family photo? I'd certainly like to see it.
