Family History Photos - Grandfathers
February 2013
Each month we will be asking members to post up family history photographs from a particular catagory. Having covered several specific forms of dress and events over the last few months, we are now moving to photographs of specific relatives. This month we are looking for photographs of your grandfathers (and the grandfathers of your partner and any step or adopted grandfathers etc!). (No prizes for guessing next month's catagory!!  )Photos posted on this thread will eventually be added to our 'Decades of Family History Photographs' forum in order to help others with dating old photographs. (You are welcome to post any photos you like directly to the Decades forum at any time; these monthy requests are just further encouragement!) Please note that this thread is on an open forum so any captions to your photos may be picked up by Google searches. If you are lucky you may make a family history contact through your post! I made my best family history contact ever through a photograph caption posted on this site! There is no restriction to the number of photographs you post each month - the more the merrier! However, please make separate posts if your photos are from different decades. Remember to caption your photograph and if you know the date or approximate date, please state that also. If you are unsure, then that is something we can discuss on the thread. You will need to use photobucket or a similar site to host your pictures. If possible please scan your photos at between 300 and 600dpi - if you need help with uploading your images see here: How to upload images Please make sure you have the permission of any named living people in your photos to post their image.

gentle reminder.....
Please can you post photos from different decades on different posts, as it is difficult to copy them to the decades threads otherwise   (my juggling skills are poor at best!)Thanks
