Hello Fellow Listers: I have contacted Jerry Hetrick, the owner of the website for www.orphanphotos.info and he informed me that he was not aware of the problem as he just got back home. He informed me that he is presently working on the problem and should have it up and running again very soon. For those who have contacted me, Thanks for letting us know of the problem.... and THANK YOU for your interest in the unidentified pictures! Donna Heller Zinn

Thanks for the info. Barbara

Hello Fellow Listers: Just letting you know that I have just finished scanning and sending some old unidentified pictures to a really good website for posting unidentified pictures.... www.orphanphotos.info Those pictures [at present] that have my e-mail address [djzinn@pa.net] as a contact, were found in a house at 56 West Big Spring Avenue, Newville, Cumberland Co., PA.. Many were taken by Perry County photographers, but a few were taken by photographers from Dauphin, Juniata and Mifflin Counties and even some from other states. These original photographs will now be housed in the Unidentified Photo collection at The Perry Historians. Please do take a look at all of the photos posted on this site, they certainly need an "identity". Thanks in advance!

Hello Fellow Listers: Does anyone know anything about what appears to be a Photograph Company by the name of National Copying Company? I have just acquired some old unidentified pictures and three of them appear to be very old pictures with the "National Copying Co." logo under the photos. The photos also appear to be "touched up" with ink or pencil markings changing the appearance of the people just a bit - adding hair where there was none - darkening the eyes - making the neck look slimmer, etc.. Thanks in advance for any assistance! Donna Heller Zinn of Newville, Cumberland Co., PA. volunteer at The Perry Historians

Thanks - I would like to see them. Barbara

Hello Fellow Listers: Jerry Hetrick - a fellow lister - has a website up and running for anyone to place unidentifies photos in hopes of getting them identified. The site address is: www.orphanphotos.info I am in the process of scanning and sending all of the old photos that I just acquired to this site in hopes that it will be easier for those of you interested in seeing these old photos. The photos I received appear to have close ties to Perry County. Most are taken by three of the more popular photographers from Perry County - Coble, Keagey and Lenney. Thanks again for all of you who have contacted me asking to receive scanned images of these old pictures. Donna Heller Zinn of Newville, Cumberland Co., PA. volunteer at The Perry Historians
