Thank you for these links! I am always locating old photos at antique fairs and such and it breaks my heart that these are being sold just because they are old. I try to collect as many as I can and I plan on eventually post them to photo family sites or at the Gene Pool itself. Being able to date photos, even if within a 10 year span of time, is so helpful
