I'm hoping we can use ancestory.com to find out more information about them. Thank you for stopping by my blog earlier.

All those little sweet details. <br /><br />I am just starting up my family research and scanning in old photos and loving it. I never thought of transferring images to fabric. What a great idea. <br />Thanks again for sharing and thanks for the visit. <br /><br />Have a blessed day!<br />Belinda (8)Belindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02261430786214484113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3576318890512977575.post-74238780720207680332013-10-11T21:14:44.118+01:002013-10-11T21:14:44.118+01:00Oh Julie Ann I hope all goes well with the move an...Oh Julie Ann I hope all goes well with the move and that your kitchen cupboards get sorted soon. I think it would drive me mad, but I'm sure men being men think nothing of it lol. Thank you for such an interesting look into your history, it certainly must be interesting. I have always wanted to look into my dad's side of the family as he died when I was 5 but because of the way mum was all of his family didn't want anything to do with us and have never wanted to since :-( lots of hugs happy Woyww :-) Kezzy xxxxxx Kezzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08282325796163580792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3576318890512977575.post-25947027406708253732013-10-11T13:01:20.423+01:002013-10-11T13:01:20.423+01:00I love Alice and George, fantastic photos and I li...I love Alice and George, fantastic photos and I like what you're doing with them. I love family history stuff, it's one of the things I'll pick up again as winter approaches and we can't be outside as much. The storage caddy has now had three coats of paint and is ready for some decoration! Good news about the home sale, hope it continues to be smooth, but what's the deal with the kitchen? Sounds a bit odd that!

Good news about the asbestos scare being a scare and the sale going along nicely, hope the kitchen get sorted soon... sometimes you have to make a stand and become a priority on their list or you just keep getting pushed to the bottom... squeaky hinge and all that... good luck!!

The stamping is fabulous and the transfer of the images on to fabric ... I think I'd like to give that a try sometime in the future. I hope the kitchen issue is resolved soon. Thanks for sharing. Hope you have a good week.

I like how the theme just came together of Alice's card. Which technique did you use to transfer the images to fabric? I haven't tried that yet but am wanting to do it. <br /><br />Thank you for visiting me already!<br /><br />Happy WOYWW<br />Peace, Kay (19)505whimsygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16594635228441769910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3576318890512977575.post-5123307050786667412013-10-10T07:36:26.351+01:002013-10-10T07:36:26.351+01:00You tell a good story, Julie Ann...

I hope to see posts all about those very soon!<br /><br />Interesting that your great-great grandfather was a church organist, as my grandpa was a church organist for over seventy years, retiring just last year at age eighty-seven. And my great-great grandfather lived near Abingdon, as he went to college at Oxford, before he came to the States.<br /><br />If I didn't know any better, I'd say you could be my "real life" Aunty. We come from such similar backgrounds -- Jewish Poland and Oxfordshire, England!<br /><br />Beautiful things, as always -- Can't wait to see more!<br /><br /><3 KateKatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03753710531111845020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3576318890512977575.post-64275791659126891772013-10-09T18:55:55.615+01:002013-10-09T18:55:55.615+01:00What a beautiful thing--being able to transfer the...What a beautiful thing--being able to transfer these wonderful family photos that had been put far away, and they are now part of a special keepsake work of art!
