New pictures!



I have been doing some shopping, and over the next few weeks I should have lots and lots of photos to add.

Here is a lovely photo of a large wooden house with a family in front, taken January 18th, 1911. There are seven younger children and four adults. I don't know if they are two families or one with relatives, workers, or visitors. I think the children are all one family because of how and where they are sitting and standing, but that's just my opinion.

It was a photo postcard sent from Miss Evangeline Huling to Miss Carrie B. Fox. So my guess is this is the Huling family. Here is a closeup of the people. Click to see it nice and HUGE!

Dear Jann

I'm so glad you found them! I hope they display well at the reunion! I'm not a Huling myself so won't be coming out but I hope it's a great success and I'm excited to hear that the picture will be making an appearance.

Thanks so much for your comment. I find it so exciting when someone finds a family picture they didn't know about.

If someone at the reunion recognizes it, please let me know and I'll add information to my blog in case anyone else is searching.

Sincerely
Natalia

I believe I have emailed you about this when you first commented. There isn't any new info on the back that I haven't mentioned (no addresses) but I will have to find the picture and add a scan of the back to the post for you. Maybe someone will recognize the handwriting?

Thanks for writing!

Long awaited additions....

I don't know anyone but myself who has long awaited any additions to this picture blog, but isn't it best to assume the positive? Here are some photos from various genealogy or other sites. These are just thumbnails to tempt you. Clicking on the photo or on the link I give should link you to the family's site, to the page where the photo is. This is for courtesy and possibly copyright reasons. The Jacob-Buys family. Clicking on the picture above will take you to the original site, where names are listed under the photo. Upon reading a little further, I came up with these interesting points about this Dutch family. There were 19 children; two were born after this photo. Their given names were actually much more "interesting" than the ones under the photo. They are very Latin sounding. There were 60 grandchildren, from 9 of the children in the photo. Of the other 10 children in this family... 3 died as babies (3rd, 11th, and 18th children) 4 took holy orders (7...
