Family Heritage

I must say that I am fascinated with history and heritage so when my cousin came over with a box full of family pictures some dating 90 years! The oldest one I know is the one I enclosed here of my Grandfather and his two brothers in 1927 he was fifteen in the picture, he died when I was right, almost nine, but this picture reminded me that he had once been a boy with hopes and dreams. Do you have a passion for your history and heritage?

Great picture. I have some pictures so old no one alive can tell me who they are. Hate to throw them out.

I hear there's a book series that began as a collection of old pictures until the publisher suggested the author write something about each one. I guess it's a story about peculiar people and different dimensions or something. You could try writing a story around the pictures you have, Paige. You could always share your stories here or put together an ebook if you get very far

@Michellekidwell I also love to look at old pictures of my grandfather. My Aunt wrote a book and sent me some. It was great seeing him as a gyoung man.

As far as I knew, we were warriors and due to losing the war, our ancestors ran and shifted to another country which is now a state.. They disguised their heritage so as to save their lives

Yes whenever I am free I look to the photograph into the album and recall my history.
