Little Gems - Family Tree

My devotion to family history has led me to collect and preserve any old documents, memorial cards, photographs and vintage postcards that I have come across over time so that they can saved from being lost forever. I have extracted some of the names from them and begun to add them to a family tree so that I could research some of their backgrounds. Perhaps someone, one day will recognize a name.
