Something Special Thursday

Greetings all, The family has received a special "picture book" as Granddad called it. Granddad received it from his father. Who was a HOFFMAN but his wife was a DUVALL

WE are not sure which side of family from since we have found many pictures of

HUFFMAN, HOFFMAN, DUVALL, PLANTS , PATTERSON's and many other kin.

A picture of a dead child, we know who it is but surprised us they did that so long ago.

I guess the CW caused you to double think events. We have replicated the pictures my cousin and I. Mom had a fire once and we were lucky it was saved. So thought we should do back up and next trip home he and I did split the pictures and shared so two houses have copies.

These pictures have to date from about 1860 forward, there are CW people in them and in uniform. Yes we are a very patriotic family.
