Family Photo
I haven't done a very good job of organizing my ancestral photos. My computer has a folder called "Family Pictures and Info" where I dump everything I find. Of course, I always mean to go back to sort and label. But that hasn't happened yet. That's how I ended up with this series of photos with the following tags:
Levi Byram Hammon family
Hammon Family 1940s
Hammon Sisters
Sadly, I don't even know where I got these pictures from though I am assuming I took them from either Ancestry.com or FamilySearch.com. I am fairly confident that they are the same family and I vaguely remember that at one point my mother told me who these people were. There is one thing I do know - the man in the middle photo with the hat (in the middle of the top row) is my grandfather. But, of course, I don't know how I know that.
After some review on FamilySearch, here's what I found out:
Top Photo
Front Rose: Martha Jane Belnap, Levi Byram Hammon, Polly
Middle Row: D Glenn (my grandfather), Jane, Lettie, Frank
Back Row: Amasa, Rhoda, Robena, Ethel
I am grateful to the contributor who added this information. I found several copies of this picture but there was only ONE person who added the names.
Middle Photo
This photo was labeled Frank Hammon's Brothers & Sisters - August 1937 by a contributor on FamilySearch. Now I'll just need some amazing facial recognition skills to figure the rest out.
I haven't yet found out which sister is which in the last photo. Time to turn to Ancestry - wish me luck. So PLEASE when you upload a photo, identify as much as you can of people, place and time. If you do, I promise to keep a record of that!
