Williams, Leonard, Sheets/Jordan, and Allen families

These are all linked from Ancient Faces. To see the original entry go to ancientfaces.com and search the names.


Williams family; ma and pa Williams with their (probably) five children, two sons-in-law, and grandchildren. Atkins & Smith are also represented--probably the sons-in-law.



James and Mary Leonard family; names are listed on the photo itself.



Contributor's grandmother said that this was her family from Indiana. It is probably the Sheets family but could be Jordan. First names may be: Salathiel, Albert, Caroline.



James Allen is the young man at the back second from right with the X above his head, with his parents and siblings. The other members of the family are not named.

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.

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.
