There was an envelope of pictures my mother had that were entirely undated. But there was a clue: a picture of a child (cropped from the illustration used for this post) and their birthday cake. Using the age given on the cake and the child’s year of birth, the photos could at least be dated to a year. Mom took quite a few photographs and there seemed little chance that the ones in the envelope were taken in separate years. They were in an envelope with their negatives which made it clear they were all taken on the same roll of film. It would have been easy to overlook the age on the cake–one needs to pay attention to every detail. What context clue could you be overlooking?
We are excited to offer these two genealogy classes starting in the next few days. Check out details about our offerings:
If you need a personal history writing prompt and you wear glasses, when did you first start to where them? When did you discover you neeed to wear them? For me, it was one summer when we were sorting calves in the barn and my Dad told me to get calf with a certain tag number in its ear and I said I could not read the number on the tag and I was standing the same distance from the calf as him. A few days later I was at the doctor’s office getting an eye test where it was determined that I needed glassses.
