I watched the show last week. It was certainly interesting but went so fast that I certainly had to concentrate to catch on to every word they said. However, I got some pointers from listening to them pull records together to figure out the line.

The Portal to Texas History might be interested in this. It would be nice to have a place to put all the lost & found photos.

The photo states I listed are Arkansas, Louisiana, and Georgia. I would not think TSGS or Portal to Texas History would be interested.

I have photos u have rescued from trash from various places and I refuse to get rid of them. They are of no family relation either. When my grandmother died I rescued some of her pics from the garbage. Because the family didn't want them.

What a great discussion! I have a similar issue. I had someone send me a genealogy condicile a few years ago (If anyone wants a copy, please send me a private email. I am on vacation but will send it when I get home). I have personalized it and made sure it is with my will. While my kids are not really interested in genealogy, they know I will come back and haunt them if they throw away any of my genealogy research. They would not have a moment of peace! LOL -Carla
