I have a cousin who I met doing genealogy research on the net. He sent me two photos today, and it's the first time I've ever seen a photo of my great grandparents. These would be my father's grandparents on his father's side of the family.



This one is from 1918. The older woman is my great grandmother, and the oldest boy to her left is my grandfather.


And this one is in 1924, my great grandparents, and the boy in uniform on the lower step is my grandfather.

Old pictures like that are AWESOME, and so hard to come by. I'm so happy for you that you got to see them!
