I agree, "Two heads are always better than one" and especially in family history . . . family historian's and genealogists helping each other is so much better and more fun too. Several of my Haf ancestors settled in Wisconsin also . . . I am just starting to delve into that line. Thanks for stopping by, Kathy . . . Happy Holidays!Ginihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08614538259404355973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367850639229156864.post-72621853877147211882011-12-01T08:25:23.497-08:002011-12-01T08:25:23.497-08:00I just found your blog and the wealth of pictures ...I just found your blog and the wealth of pictures you have shared so far. That is such a good idea. I have ancestors from Bavaria who came to Wisconsin in 1856 from Regen near the Czech border and have a family picture of them. The suggestions for scanning larger pictures are very good ones. As my mother (and probably her Bavarian ancestors) always said, "Two heads are better than one" when working on a problem.Kathy, the Single-minded Offshoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07887312817720774699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367850639229156864.post-53560060752112485462011-10-21T21:50:35.758-07:002011-10-21T21:50:35.758-07:00Thank you, Sue and Heather . . . had my great-gran...Thank you, Sue and Heather . . . had my great-grandparents not included the photos of those missing family members, I would have never known of those photos or what they looked like! I think I would like to see if those photos exist somewhere in the family . . . it really makes me wonder now where they could be . . . hmmm . . . I have some work to do! <br /><br />Also, Heather, you have brought up a great point . . . include photos of missing members in our own photos . . . what a great idea! Sue, I have been contacting family members in Germany to see if I can get any information at all . . . not easy but I don't give up easy either! So glad you both stopped by.Ginihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08614538259404355973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367850639229156864.post-62240455101272612722011-10-21T20:29:36.918-07:002011-10-21T20:29:36.918-07:00What a great portrait!

I'll have to remember that next time we sit for photos. I think it is pretty unique!Heather Kuhn Roelkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07247311735034470203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6367850639229156864.post-4257023968433631252011-10-21T14:21:53.108-07:002011-10-21T14:21:53.108-07:00How wonderful to have a photo of so many family me...How wonderful to have a photo of so many family members in one sitting. I've never seen a group photo that displayed Older Portraits. <br /><br />When I have a photo too large for my scanner, I take a photo of it with my camera and upload it to Windows 7 Live Photo Gallery. There I have multiple options for sizing and editing. I too have scanned in sections and pieced. <br /><br />Best of luck with your photo detective work. I have some unidentified folks, too. I keep hoping for a clue....maybe one of these days!<br /><br />SueSue McPeakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04927975578544675345noreply@blogger.com
