I have always enjoyed old photos. When I find them I wonder who these people where and what was their story. I came upon a box of old photos from an auction and wanted to start this photo blog and perhaps find their families that did not know they were missing.........

ANOTHER UNKNOWN RELATIVE
This is also an unknown from my fathers album. The dresses appear to be from sometime about 1920. I have not a clue on who they are. They look like members of a wedding party.
My computer is still being repaired and will soon be cleaned and reinstalled. I am so happy that all my files are backed up and I do it on a regular basis.

HAVEN’T POSTED LATELY
My computer is being repaired and along with the file with my Auction Photos. This is a photo from my family collection of my fathers side of the family. He is a WW1 soldier with no name and I do not know anything about him. The only WW1 soldier that I came across is Owen Mulroy, who was the son of my great grandfathers (Thomas Dowd) sister Catherine Dowd Mulroy. He died in 1918 from infection of war wounds. Owen is a possible candidate, but where did the photo come from and what is the number 2648 on the bottom of the picture?

WHAT A HAPPY BABY
I posted this picture and wondered what or who was sitting on the left side of the photo. I blew it up and I could see what appeared to be dog legs. It seems to me that the dog moved it head at the time the shutter clicked and his head is blurry. Mothers hair style is that of the Gibson Girl Era.
