Can you identify any of the people in these photos?
Robert Lack has photos of some Dekalb County residents that belonged to his great grandmother, Martha Colwell who was born in 1880. In Robert's own words:
I have a lot of old pictures that belonged to my great grandmother, who I cant identify.. I would like some help with this..she was born in 1880, Martha Colwell, daughter of Bill and Melissa Caldwell, from Dekalb county...the surnames would include...Colwell, Culwell, Caldwell, Redmon, Lack, Walker and maybe others.. Any idea how I could get these posted somewhere, so people could look and contact me about them? I bet someone would love to have them for their ancestor files, and I will be glad to print a nice copy of any of them if they can help identify them.
Also have a lot of pictures from the Norvella West Parker estate, I gave the originals, along with an old diary to Mr Webb at the library.
Thanks, Robert Lack
