Pay a visit to "Friday from the Collectors" this week

I've been reading with interest footnoteMaven's "Friday from the Collectors" series on her new blog Shades of the Departed. This Friday I'll be reading again, particularly the comments section since the guest author is someone very familiar.

Hope you'll make a visit on Friday over to Shades of the Departed to read The Gift of the Photograph: Uniting Families with their History. It includes a few personal stories of photographic discoveries and also some tips that may help you to begin to (or continue to) put together your own family's photographic history.

While you're there, you might enjoy previous editions of "Friday from the Collectors" from the following contributors:

• Digitial Scrapbooking for Genealogists - Jasia
• Documenting Today For Tomorrow's History - Nikki-ann
• Community History On The Run - Chery Kinnick
• A Moment In Time - Becky Wiseman
• A Monumental Task - Terry Thornton

Thanks to footnoteMaven for this wonderful new series on Shades of the Departed.
