Hi Christina
August 27th, 2005 I received the pictures you sent me of the Hartman family. Fred, Elizabeth, Albert, Clara and Edward are my immediate family. I do have the same old photos only we recently moved and they are packed away in the garage. It was nice seeing them again. The other photos that are not immediate family I will forward on to there families. After talking with you I did go on to ebay and look for pictures. Very interesting what you can find. The names handwritten on the family pictures look like my mother's handwriting. Don't know if that is possible. It amazes me how those pictures could have got out to the world by way of ebay. As I was looking through the census - I found names that are a part of my mothers side of the family. I would like to be able to research them more. Is it easy to find the census reports that you sent me? Thank you so much for sharing these photos. It sounds like an interesting hobby you have. Connie Rexford |
