    Vicki Robinson's Get Creative Challenge Nov 22 - Life on 41st Street

    The original of this is not a bad LO - and my wonderful MIL adored it and gave a copy to all her friends - but it's time for an update for a new album. They lived near the old Avondale Mills factory and she remembered wonderful times there. This collection is fabulous for heritage. This...

    My Angel Mom

    Today would have been my Mom's 86th birthday, so I decided I was going to scrap her and remember the days when she was here. For the November Challenge #6 - Border

    Lily_1915_small.jpg

    This is my paternal grandmother Lily Burrow sawing a log of wood outside of her family's homestead. This photo is dated around 1915. Lily was born in 1897. So she would have been aged around 18 in this photo. One of her brothers is standing opposite to her with one leg up on the log to hold it...

    Grandparents_1969_small.jpg

    These are my paternal grandparents, Lily and Roy Thompson, outside their home in Dunedin, New Zealand, sometime around or before 1969. Lily died in 1969. Roy died in 1989. I was born in 1964. I have no memories of my grandmother Lily at all. I have lots of memories of my grandad Roy. I used a...

    The Car

    A heritage photo of my father, aunt and uncle. Wolfgang, older than my father, has a different story, he was sent to the states when he was a young child to avoid Hitler's Youth Group. He became a part of my father's extended family. There is also a story of my grandmother's family taking in a...
  7. Winter Family Heritage

    Winter Family Heritage

    Winter is my mother’s maiden name, so this is the PERFECT collection for my mother’s paternal line. This is about my 2X great grandparents. Their children are depicted in birth order, except for the 5th born child, daughter Mary who lived only 9 months. My great grandfather was their youngest...

    I was at a friend's house and she took out some old photos looking for a picture of her first car, and she showed me this picture. I had to scrap it!! It's her husband's parents when they first got married.

  18. Savage?

    Savage?

    Bit of a mystery here - a DNA connection on Ancestry sent me this pic of my great-great-uncle and his wife. His brother got my great-gran pregnant behind her husband's back (no secrets in the age of DNA!) BUT it is his wife who is the absolutely twin to my DD. Presumably lots of inbreeding in...
