A few weeks ago we received a large envelope containing many family photos.
(Bottom far left below)
The sender was in the St. Louis area and did not provide many details.
Our GSMC library staff processed the collection and found several surnames on the pictures.
We searched on Ancestry and discovered a family tree that included several of the names.
We contacted the tree owner, Holly Pennington (Left below.), who lives in Indianapolis [A miracle!].
Holly and her mother Susan (Right below) visited our library and recognized
many of the family members that were not identified.
They now own this great family collection and are pleased as punch that we reached out to them.
We are also happy that we were able to give these photos a home--a win-win event for all!!
