This photo was taken summer 1961, probably somewhere on the south coast of England, I am the redheaded girl on the right, my brother-15 months older than me is the redheaded boy on the left, today is his 70th birthday!. My sister 19 months younger than me is the child at the back, my next sister, the little one at the front is 4.5 yrs younger than me. Got to love the shoes on all of us and the big scab on my knee, I remember how I got it.
There are another 3 children all younger than me who weren't born yet.
M Ross, thank you for sharing such an adorable photo of you and your dear siblings. I love the colors, especially your hair color. My mother had lovely red hair.
I see you hurt your knee.
This is the oldest photo I have. The child is my great grandmother Elizabeth Stymest Bartlett http://wikitree.com/wiki/Bartlett-7643 It's from 1852, (she looks about age 3) a tiny frame decorated in gold under the glass. I was surprised by her outfit. She looks like she attended a ball, and who knows, maybe she did with her parents. She lived in St. John, New Brunswick which was a wealthy port city at the time.
What a lovely comment, Alexis. Thank you.
This is a photo taken by my grand uncle Guy Long in Enid, Oklahoma in 1950. He took this photo of my grand aunt Della Mae and all of their eleven children. Their oldest daughter is holding their first grandchild. Della Mae and Guy loved children, and they were blessed with eleven healthy children.
This is my 3rd great grandfather, Jacob Howe, and four generations of his family. He was a Civil War Veteran, outlived a couple wives and had a herd of kids. This is one of my favorite pics for my Howe line. I wish I could have met him.

26 Jan 1926 Juan Jourdan's camp, his wife and family, at Gila Bend, Arizona. I borrowed some children from my father's trip, on his 'Harley', across the southern United States.

Thankyou Vicki, I am very fond of this photo from my father's album.
This is my brother and I in about 1972 or 1973. We are at my grandmother's house. I'm pretty sure one of my relatives crocheted or knitted my headband and sweater... I'm just not sure who.
This photo shows my mother Hannelore Gisela Grabow at the age of two years in December 1936.
The primary photo of my grandfather on a tricycle was from circa 1918 in Chicago. It is important to my family as it is the only known surviving photo from his childhood. The accompanying photos on the right show a "family tree" of his children and grandchildren also on tricycles or other riding toys..
These cute little girls are my “Auntie Chickee” and my mother Margie. They were born 11 months apart in January and December
Hi Sue. There are instructions for posting an image to G2G from an iPad at this link.

In Cape Breton most likely Glace Bay but could be in Inverness County at Grandparents House From look of the photo My Grandmother looks about 8 years old so I would venture it was shot around 1930

Me approx age 3 1/2 and our Dog Snoopy (was a poodle & terrier mix) Taken in 1974 at CFB Gagetown, New Brunswick

This is the earliest photo that I have of my dad, Hsien-Hsiung James Ko. He was born in 1924, so this photo would have been from 1929 or so. I found it the summer that I lived in our family home in Taipei. I asked him about it in a letter and he remembered the incident. Ever the stoic though, he added that the injury "wasn't too painful". I wish I knew more about what happened.
This is a photo of my Dad and his siblings. He and his brother were twins. I'm guessing that they were about 3 years old here, which would mean the picture was taken about 1928.
My father Angel with 3 of his 9 siblings. Circa 1960. Chile
