MYSTERY MONDAY–UNIDENTIFIED FAMILY PHOTOS


HALL   BROWN  AVERY  BRIGHT  GOODBODY
These photos were all in a small album in the possession of one of my husband’s cousins, a 1st cousin once removed.  She too does genealogy.  We cannot figure out who these ladies & gentlemen are.  The folks who might have known are long since gone from us.  These are most probably family members from the Saratoga Springs, New York area, containing the surnames listed at the top of this post.  

See the family group records I have included below.  

This album was in the possession of Dorothy Louise Hall who married Thomas Leavenworth Goodbody, Sr.  We found pictures identified (but only a couple) that were Dorothy’s grandmother, Cora E. Brown.

I’m am placing these photos on here exactly as they were scanned. 

If you recognize anyone, please contact me.

TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA ABOUT THIS FAMILY, HERE ARE SOME SCREEN SHOTS FROM MY DATABASE.  

These are the families we believe are represented in this album.

None of us ever know when a piece of information we provide might lead to a connection with a family member or someone who knows about the family.  That’s just what I’m doing here.  It’s always worth a try.

I wish you luck in identifying your mystery photos.

Happy hunting,

Michigan Girl

  1. Hi I enjoy reading your entries from time to time. I've been pondering for over a year for how best to share miscellaneous material (mostly photos) I have. I already had my own web site so I finally decided to start a blog. However I don't have time to "blog" in the traditional sense. It will be mainly a matter of posting items for people Googling their ancestors to find. Mostly Michigan stuff.

    1. Thank you Mike. Everyone has a different reason for blogging or starting a website. Since I have so many ancestors from Michigan and I'm from Michigan, I would be interested to read your entries. Good luck with it and I hope you find some long lost cousins. Please send me a link to your blog.
      Thank you for stopping by.

I look forward to reading your comments. If you have any connection to the people mentioned in this blog, please let me know. I write about mine and my husband's ancestors and would welcome new information or meeting a new cousin or two. Thanks for visiting and come back soon.
