About the Photos
Most of the photos on this site were extracted from reference images (high-resolution tiffs, 20 to 200 megabytes in size) from the Library of Congress research archive. (To query the database click here.) Many were digitized by LOC contractors using a Sinar studio back. They are adjusted by your webmaster for contrast and color in Photoshop before being downsized and turned into the jpegs you see here.

I have to update the site. My cousin Catherine was 70 when she died 2 weeks ago Aug. 2007 from a combination of things. Angelo drowned when he was 11 in 1951. Phyllis died in 1996 from Lung cancer at age 62. Just me and my cousin Maryann are left from the picture. I was born in 1940 and Maryann in 1942.
