Poster: cembry57 (see this users gallery) My ancestors settled in the Ozarks of Missouri.

Stunning layout, Cheryl. This photo is an absolute treasure for your family, as is the beautiful memory keeper page you've created. Terrific journaling. Love how you used the spiral swirl to clip the tags to the ribbon across the top. Great job!

Beautiful page...wonder why the people back then seemed to think they should not smile...at least these all have the same frowns.

Perhaps a wedding or something? The center one is in light, rest in dark clothing...

Wonderful old photo of your family. I so wish we had old photos like this of our family. A garage fire before I was born took care of them. I'm not real sure why the photos were stored in the garage, but the entire family would love to see them now. Fantastic layout. TFS

BTW... People didn't smile back then because of the exposure time required by those old cameras. Pictures used to take minutes instead of the seconds we experience today.

Marvelous!!!! I love the old pictures and expressions on their face. I wonder if they said CHEESE and everyone frowned??!! The young woman in white must have been been the only unmarried one, gotta attract the men... I wish I too had old photos like this. It's fun to look at them and wonder just what they were thinking. I absolutely love this layout! Great job and perfect for the challenge. Thank you for participating. Reward is on it's way. TFS!
