    • New Contributors to Name Those Faces

    A number of pictures added recently of Baseball and school were submitted by Ron Shupe. Thanks for the pics and we look forward to read your comments about these photos.

    I will now, also be posting pictures that have been supplied by Bob Quinn. Bob has come across quite a few old photos, and he needs help to identify the poeple in those photos. He has obviously heard how good QCC readers are at placing faces.

    *********

    Queens County's own local historian and star of the latest episode of Ancestors in the Attic, Tim MacDonald, has recently come by some old photographs. These photos were in a collection belonging to Armand Wigglesworth. Tim now has the task of cataloguing these photos, and as you can imagine, with very little information he is trying to piece together the puzzle.

    What he does know is that all the photos were taken in Queens County and all those pictured are or were locals to Queens County. He also knows that all pictures were taken between 1959 and 1962.

    So armed with this information and an insatiable curiosity, CAN YOU NAME THOSE FACES?

    Please click on the comments tab below the post of the picture and tell us what you know about that picture, no matter what it is. Based on all your comments, others may be able to provide a name. I will be trying to improve on the upload quality of the pics very shortly, but wated to get this new feature started. I realize that these faces are hard tp see, but you may have a copy of this photo, or were in this photo and therefore may be able to give some of the names of theothers. It would also be interesting to hear any stories about the picture thatt you may have to share.

    New pictures will be posted often and the picture on Queens County Community will also change to let you know there are new pictures to check out.

    Have fun and enjoy!

    Do you think anyone will notice that I am standing in a barrel?

      Hi Heather .I think it would be nice to remove the solved pictures .The ones that haven't been solved by now most likely won't be!

      And how does one know when someone new might come along and solve the "unsolved"...best to leave up for awhile to give everyone a chance. I am new to the site so the photos are new to us also and I would like some time to examine them.

      Thanks for your comments. I do like to know what my readers think, but I could never delete any of my posts. It is an account of all the work I have done for the past year.

      Thanks Peggy. I love doing this, so it is not really work. I really appreciate your support. It would be nice for people to leave their name when posting, but I allow anonymous comments, as to me it is more important to allow the input rather than know who it is.
