Our extended family image archive

Albums and images collected from our extended extended family, including: Clark, Ford, Grigg, Norrish, [Taylor], Vickery/Viccari and Walker. Shared memories, which should be about the future and what our descendents might find interesting. Organised by decade – as I can’t think of a better way to do it! – More notes about the archive below.

Notes about this archive

Why?
I wanted to try to make a stab at archiving some of the visual history of the extended family.

Limitations.
It’s invevitably biased around Viccari/Vickery, as this is where collection here has started. If others are happy to contribute, it will have wider appeal. Currently this is for pre-digital images.

Function
Images don’t mean all that much to others without either knowing the faces (and it’s usually about the people) – and places, unless there is text to explain a little about them, and for me that’s the really hard bit. Time consuming and often inacurate! – Sorry. Any help with contributions and corrections will be much appreciated! Email corrections with the file name as reference.

My experience
It is time consuming, but looking for a few minutes at each image, as I copy, retouch and adjust them, there is a sense of family history and a connection to the past, even where I have no knowledge of the characters I am looking at.
