Included in Ethel Schossow's papers and cuttings were items and stories about people who I have not been able to source from my Ancestry.com connections.
So the best way to preserve them and hopefully find an owner is to include them in her story!
Hence the title "Bibs and Bobs"
In order to collect the "memories", thanks to any family who have shared already through the web, or through Ancestry.com.
As to my collection, I have no idea when or where the photos were taken, other than what little information that sometimes was written either on the back of photos or in the old albums.
Unfortunately, we do not appreciate often, the records of the past, until it is too late.
This was the case with these photographs as well. Just imagine the stories that "Old Grandma" could have shared, if we had the foresight to think ahead, but 30 years ago, family history research was sort of "old hat".
A bit "hit and miss". Who would have ever thought that progress would have researched the stage that research can be done from almost anywhere in the world, whilst sitting in the comfort of a home office, albeit with "slippers".
If anyone has a story of one of our Dickfos, Schossow, or other family, and would like to share some memories, please email me at jillett1800@gmail.com and I can then update this blog.
The memories and stories will then be around for future generations to enjoy.
