I love old photographs of my family. Really, I love old photographs of any kind. This is why I collect them, buy them up and marvel at them. However, I know that those photographs of people I don’t know, that I am not related to, aren’t really my photographs to own, even if I did purchase them.
I had mentioned the joy of finding the family that belongs to photographs I purchased of the Lebo/Galloway/Mowerr family in an earlier post (which you can read about by clicking here). I had mentioned that I found the family after starting an Ancestry tree based on the family and starting a new blog in hope that maybe someone would stumble upon it searching for their ancestor’s names. Well, the blog has changed a bit.
The Georgia Anna Project (at www.thegeorgiaannaproject.com) is not only the Lebo/Galloway/Mowerr family photos but now includes photos from all over that I have purchased that I am trying to find their homes. Named for Georgia Anna Mowerr, one of the driving forces in helping to find the family that her photos belonged to, The Georgia Anna Project was created in order to reunite lost photographs of ancestors with their descendants.
