What a special adventure...putting the pieces together must be so rewarding...and sounds fun too :) That photo is such a wonderful treasure...I love old family photos-they do add some images and faces to the stories before our time and that's just so cool.

That is because I was recently given BOXES of archival family photos when my Granny passed. I am in the midst of doing what you are doing...TRYING to figure out who the heck all these people are and their relation. Your story about Max gripped me. And you are right, there are often secrets that come out generations later. For instance, I am not trying to find out WHY my grandmother used and alias name on her marriage certificate! It appears I had a rebel in the family...I'm very impressed! haha. Good luck with your search!<br /><br />Kathy<br /><br />www.youllshootyoureyeout-kathy.blogspot.comKmcblackburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06781497299481341005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2595637616624406342.post-18405288274944332462011-08-20T16:32:54.067-04:002011-08-20T16:32:54.067-04:00WOW!!!

Amazing...Oh good gracious... I had goosebumps too.<br /><br />Amazing to think of the history that transpired before us. And how far we have come. What a beauiful thing to "discover" Max and give him his rightful place in your family.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12112453369738198010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2595637616624406342.post-3599132244952982322011-08-20T09:56:51.310-04:002011-08-20T09:56:51.310-04:00This reminds me of a book I read in jr. high about...This reminds me of a book I read in jr. high about Dale Evans and Roy Roger's baby girl with down's syndrome. Everyone thought they should send her away, but they didn't. I think she died when she was only about two years old. The book was called Angel Unaware.deb dutyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11555917718390662115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2595637616624406342.post-7946033982297499472011-08-19T12:12:39.693-04:002011-08-19T12:12:39.693-04:00wow how interesting!

Moving and interesting - how the time has changed... <br /><br />The photo is beautiful and I guess that they maybe wouldn´t have taken it in case they had been truly ashamed of him, so I think there was love. Of course it was harder to have a child with Down´s in those days, with prejudices and all - it still is no picnic according to a friend of mine who has a son with Downs. Luckily, we all learn generation by generation to be more accepting of different.<br /><br />Please let us know if you learn something more! :-)tinajohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11107966080559159842noreply@blogger.com
