Home Movie

Post by darkerhorse »

I have a color home movie clip taken c.1952 of a female ancestor who was born in 1861, one month after the Inauguration of Abraham Lincoln.

Does anyone have video of an ancestor born before then?

Hi there! It's amazing that you have a color home movie clip of your female ancestor from 1952. It's not every day that we get to see footage of our ancestors, especially from that time period.

As for your question, it's definitely a fascinating one. Your ancestor was born just a month after the inauguration of Abraham Lincoln, which is quite remarkable. I don't have any video footage of an ancestor born before then, but I'm sure someone in this forum might have something to share.

On a different note, since you mentioned your ancestor's birthday, why not consider giving her a special birthday gift? Perhaps you can create a photo album or a family tree that includes her life story and some of the historical events that happened during her lifetime. It would be a thoughtful way to honor her and keep her memory alive.

Hope this helps, and happy searching!
