Rendered before/after
I have become the family genealogist (no @gumby, not gynecologist) over the past few years. That torched was past from one of my relatives who is now pressing 90 years old. He has given me hundreds of years of heritage and for about 5 years now I have been continuing the research. If anyone is interested just do a google search of him (Larry Tart) who was an author of many articles of history. It's amazing how cool it is to receive all of the older photos of everyone along the way. The family members over 80 years of age now have the stories that go with those pics from their early memories. Once they die out the knowledge they have only goes on if we ask them about those experiences.
I have all the old family photos and records. My great grandmother on my mother's side was widowed with three daughter to raise. She had to go to work in an orphanage after having to put all three daughters in there. Girls were allowed to leave when they got old enough to get married off. This is a photo of a ledger with there names, they were referred to as "inmates".
