Often met with unfortunate circumstances, or even mutual disinterest, old photographs often get separated from those who once knew them. These photos can travel further from their place of origin, and become altogether removed from their identities.

I want to be able to welcome them into a family they can call home once more–as part of my chosen family.I want to be able to welcome them into a family they can call home once more–as part of my chosen family. I also want to initiate conversations about genealogy, what can be changed in the traditional genealogy community, and about guests family stories, and how genealogy impacted them.
