Family Photos Online

Post by darkerhorse »

Are there any other websites where family photos are posted, besides Ancestry.com, Family Search, My Heritage, GenForum, and Find A Grave?

Deadfred:

https://deadfred.com

Interesting (er... for me at least) to note that I'm 90+% sure that I'm related to a David Sweeney whose photo was posted there. He would be my (maternal) 2nd great grand uncle. Unfortunately, the person that posted this photo never answered my subsequent e-mail inquiries. Those were from 2017.

I also inquired with the DeadFred Admin and they informed me that the photo was posted back in 2003. Also, they commented on the fact that the poster, in not responding to my inquiries, may have been a case wherein the person may have "moved on" (if not perhaps otherwise "passed on").

Hope that helps.

Its always worthwhile (especially if you are from a relatively small, close-knit, commune) to look around at sites like facebook for groups like these for my 'hometown' of Casalvecchio di Puglia https://www.facebook.com/groups/281951528586418 https://www.facebook.com/groups/578752532170683

Nick - that's a good point. Here's a Facebook group in my ancestral hometown, Agnone, in the Molise; they post a lot of old photographs:

The Facebook idea is a great resource..! There is even one for my ancestral hometown of Valmontone (Lazio). I have even posted to see if anyone has family history I don't know yet...
