I’ve learned also that once you get going, you may not be able to distinguish a person’s name but you could certainly pick them out of a line up. Then when I’m communicating with some distant cousins they point out their relative and then I start to feel like I’m really starting to get somewhere!

I’ve identified two or three of Jennie Love’s sisters now!

I haven’t even started scanning or deciphering most because they are so daunting! But you made such a fun post out of it, it’s given me the fire to give it a go – thanks!

Once I get things scanned I hope I can group together similar faces and that should help a lot. I’ll definitely ask the next time I’m unsure. There are some pictures of some houses I would like your input on too. Cassie said some looked to be Caldwell and some looked like they were from the Shore. Now I just have to find them on my hard drive. :)

Mr. Wambow was a conducter on the Railroad. I spent many hours in Sufren, N.Y.
