My Photo Gallery
Some people you may recognise!
Displayed in the following pages are examples of photos taken from my family albums. Although some are annotated with names and other details, I cannot yet connect them with my family tree. Please take a careful look at them and if you recognise anyone, please e-mail me. I would love to hear from you!
Although most of the original photos are sepia types, they are presented as heavily compressed 8-bit grey scale images to minimisee downloading time. Apologies in advance for the poor quality; many have faded or otherwise deteriorated over the last 100+ years and this is the best my equipment and patience will render at present!
However, as a result of readers comments and now having better facilities, I am gradually replacing these images with much higher quality 24-bit colour versions. These are presented as small thumbnails which, when clicked on, will download a much larger version of around 30-50kb in size. (Once downloaded, use the 'back' button on your browser to return to the photo gallery page).
