Anyone have an old family portrait?
« on: December 03, 2006, 12:45:03 PM »
As a return for a favor done for me, I want to shoot a family portrait of my wife's sister, her husband and two kids. This will be my Christmas present to them.

Ideally, I'd like to print up a certificate with an old family portrait on it. Something from the 50's would be perfect.

If anyone has an old family portrait that I could download for this, I'd appreciate it.

Here's two...

Grandma, Grandpa, Dad, and my Aunt, probably around 1939.



My Great grandparents and their kids, sometime during World War II, 1943, I think, after my Uncle got back from fighting in North Africa, and on leave before he headed to England for D Day. Grandma is second from the left. She's the same Grandma as the one in the top pic.

I know these aren't from 1950's but I like them

Here is my Great Great Grandfather and Grandmother circa 1890



Here is my one set of Great Great Great Grandparents with my Great Great Grandmother as a child circa 1875

Charby, do you have a higher resolution version of the lower photo of your Great Great Great Grandparents? I like that photo.

I don't but I can ask my 81 year old cousin whose website I downloaded it from if he does.
