This is the start of the Photo Album Scanfest. There are about 200 pictures in the first album which, by the luck of the Irish is an O'Connell Album. I call it O'Connell because that's who gave it to me! There are Delaneys, Carmichaels, Bakers and Lord knows what else included; they snuck into my family tree just to confuse me. [Ha! If you find that amusing just wait till I tackle the Manchulenkos.]
My plan is to include only those pictures for which I need information. After I fill in the blanks, I will post the remaining shots, but to be fair, you would probably get a little tired after seeing 74 shots of grandson Bobby as he grows from 3 to 4. I did.
Remember that when you look at thumbnails, what you are seeing are miniatures of the full scan. Just click to view and click 'Back' on your browser window to return.

Photo Album "B"
Rather than start a new page, I decided to put Album B right here and save wear and tear on my menu and fingers. It is basically a continuation of Album A. I decided to try and stick with pictures that need some information but there are just too many that I want to show, just 'cause I like 'em! I did decide not to include any pictures from the early '60s on. That reduced the number of scans by over 60% but those scans will get caught up when I finish off the albums. (At this rate, around 2134)
Here's the second lot:
