I feel very lucky to have crossed paths online with James Preston IV who shared with me photos and family information on his namesake that I probably wouldn’t have otherwise been able to get. He granted me permission to share the items with others, and so below is the only picture he has of...

My Great-Uncle Ray Daniels was kind enough to send me this photo to make a scan from a few years back. Previous to that I had no idea what my Great-Great grandparents looked like from my Ingram side. This is a photo of my 2nd Great Grandpa William N. Ingram, and his wife Mary...

It was said that my Great-Grandmother Etoyl (Montgomery) McCall’s brother Lyle Montgomery had a daughter who had inherited most of the Montgomery family photos. I feel very lucky to have tracked her down through some old letters of her mothers, and that she was willing to share. In her photo collection, she had a...

I was looking through some of my things recently and ran across some pictures that an internet friend (Rick Lawrence) had sent me. In addition to telling me great stories passed on from his mother about my Montgomery relatives, we swapped much information on the Crawley side of my family. Charles C. Crawley is...

I love this picture of my Great-Grandparents Will and Minnie Ingram. The expressions on their faces make me want to refer to them as “Ma” and “Pa”. I don’t know the date of this photo, but wonder if it could have been taken when times were tough for them in Oklahoma before they moved...

I found these wonderful pictures that were sent to me by Rita Stoess, who visited Olney, Illinois and was shown these grave sites by Virgil Heindselman.

Caleb Heindselman Birth – 1800, Bader, Germany Death – 1875,...

This is an old photo that I acquired through a great uncle who was kind enough to let me borrow them long enough to make some scans. I am not sure of who the two younger woman are pictured here, but I think they might be their daughters Julia (Nees) Nicholson and Mary (Nees)...

This is an old photo that I acquired through a distant relative. It was tightly glued in a tattered old photo album that my Great-Grandma McCall (Etoyl Montgomery McCall) kept by her bedside. Even though the photo was unlabeled in the album, I recognized this as a photo of her parents. My guess would...
