Victorian Photos Website - BACK ONLINE!!!
« on: Saturday 16 August 08 04:36 BST (UK) »
Hello everyone,

After several months I have finally found a new home for the Victorian Photos website that used to live on the Rootschat free webspace server.  As you may know, that server has been out of commission for some time and because the Victorian Photos website was so popular, I've decided to put it back up online with a new address:

**PLEASE NOTE NEW ADDRESS AS OF 15 SEP 2008!**

http://freepages.misc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~pruesfamily/index.html

Please visit the site and enjoy all the lovely old photos  :)

Cheers
Prue

P.S.  A bit of background about the site is here:  http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,232465.0.html

Prue,
The site is beautiful and the photos are amazing (I've only had a quick look so far  ;))! I must have missed this thread in the dim and distant past. Very well done! I'm going back to have another look ...

Thankyou so much Prue

Such a lot to look at on this site and I'm sure it will be as popular as ever.
Tried to check it out a few times, so pleased you have found a way to re-install..

Well done
