Title: Searching for any Photographs
Post by: wickedwenchdee on Saturday 02 July 22 10:30 BST (UK)
Hello, wonder if anyone can help me please. Through DNA I have managed to trace my Husbands Grandfather, I have looked at dozens of Family Trees he is mentioned on (on Ancestry) but nobody has any photos of him. Are there any sites out there where I might be able to find a picture of him? He was married twice (and had 6 children that we know of) but I can't find any photos at all.

Thank you

Denise

Have you tried contacting relatives (the most likely source of any photos)? It's possible, of course, that there weren't any pictures of him taken.

I am in the process of tracking down family members but nobody seems to have been close to him. Thank you for your reply, I shall keep trying.

There is always the possibility that his picture appeared in the newspapers at some point. If you search for him in a newspaper index something might appear.
