<p>[QUOTE="smallaxe, post: 2132984, member: 13430"]All the photos I have are family photos passed down in my or my wife's family. Because of my interest in history, I sort of became the de facto archivist of family stuff. The photographs I have weren't chosen by me to fit a particular time period or subject matter. However, they do cluster around certain places and times. Most numerous are (in descending order of quantity):</p><p>Panama Canal 1910-1990</p><p>Bighorn River area of Montana/Wyoming 1906-1917</p><p>Ouray County Colorado 1916-1918</p><p>Tucson Arizona and mining regions south and west of Tucson 1903-1906</p><p>Fishers Island New York 1900-1907</p><p>Bethlehem Pennsylvania 1893-1916</p><p>Thousand Islands New York ca 1920</p><p>Central Georgia 1880-1918</p><p>Ossining New York ca 1906-1910</p><p>Those are places where there are more than a dozen photos (sometimes many dozens). Besides these are a smattering of photos of people and various places from 1880's to 1920's covering New Jersey, Ohio, New York, Pennsylvania, Chicago, Sweden, Latvia, Hawaii, New London CT, and Yellowstone Park (north entrance). After the 1920's the photos are too numerous to list. Most 1800's photos are portraits and group photos. Most 1900's photos are outdoor shots.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
