THE PHOTO ALBUMS

The images from the photo albums are mainly from the private collection of the late Florence (Craine) Penny.
Many of these are in a bad state of repair (some would have been salvaged after a house fire in 1938.) 
As my skills in scanning and photo enhancement improve, I will replace the current images.
