Identifying Your Family Photographs

Join us to learn tips and techniques for identifying historic photographs.

Identifying Your Family Photographs

A picture may be worth a thousand words, but unlocking the stories of unidentified photographs requires some sleuthing. Join us for this class on the tips and techniques for identifying historic photographs. Learn to read clues, such as the type of photograph, clothing and hairstyles, and even whether or not subjects are smiling, to reveal the stories behind every photograph. This class will also take a look at how genealogy databases and local history resources can be used to identify your family photographs.

Class will take place in Meeting Room 2AB on the High Street Level of Main Library.

To register, please call or email the Special Collections Division.
