A Collection Of Family Documents In JPG Format

This is a collection of family-related documents, cards, letters and newspaper clippings that I’ve gathered over the years. They may lean heavily towards the Black side of the family and that should come as no surprise. But there may be others that relate to you and I will be adding more as I continue my investigation into our collective history.

Nothing fancy here, just the paper trail of our collective journey.
