Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Daguerrotype Restoration Mother Luscher
« on: Sunday 03 November 19 22:13 GMT (UK)  »
This daguerreotype has a very light pencil notation on the back that says Mother Luscher.  I believe it to be my 2GG who was born in 1806 and died in 1889 in Switzerland.  Would love to see a cleaned up version.

Thank you,   Carol Ballard   Olympia, WA  USA

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / 1920's family photos Gillespie, Illinois
« on: Saturday 26 October 19 23:13 BST (UK)  »
My mother was born in Arkansas in 1918 to a poor dirt farming family.  These are some childhood photos of her and her two closest in age siblings, Leroy and Esther.  There is also one with Mom and Leroy and a man I believe to be their father, my grandfather, Ray Garner with a gun and a hunting dog.

Whatever you can do to bring these photos to life is much appreciated.

Thank you,   Carol Ballard

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Please restore photo of Mom and her Garner siblings as children
« on: Saturday 19 October 19 20:07 BST (UK)  »
My mother grew up very poor in Arkansas and Illinois.  This photo would have been taken in about 1929, probably in Gillespie, Illinois, a farm and coal mining town just east of St Louis.  My mom, Orpha Garner, is the one in the middle back.  She was born in 1918 in rural Arkansas.  Her brother Leroy is on her left and her sister Esther is on her right.  In front are her sisters Joyce and Shirley.  By then their father (who would later die in a coal mine collapse) was a coal miner and they were visiting farming relatives probably outside Gillespie.

Thank you,   Carol Ballard, Olympia, WA

I am attaching a negative of unidentified people from my ancestry.  Would appreciate any help in making them into a photo so I can perhaps figure out who they are.

Can anyone convert an old negative into a photograph?  I'm attaching a couple just to see if it can be done this way. 

I love this site and you lovely people out there!

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Please restore Hutson family gathering
« on: Wednesday 05 April 17 21:28 BST (UK)  »
This image is on a postcard that was never mailed.  My mother is the little girl in the front with the white dress with the lacey collar.  She was born in 1918 which dates the photo about 1924.  Until now I had never seen a picture of the whole Hutson family.  This appears to be an occasion of some sort as they are all rather dressed up.  They were hard working farmers and seldom had time to take a break and celebrate.  Perhaps it was Easter.  The Hutson farm is located in north central Arkansas literally on the state line of Fulton Cnty, AR and Howell Cnty, MO.

Thank you in advance for your  help.    gvgirl
