NPL is pleased to welcome Kate Kelley for a presentation on her Photo Angel Project. The Photo Angel Project was started when Kate was trying to determine who some people were in old family photographs. Using genealogy websites Kate was able to identify and connect relatives with those in the photographs. After that she was hooked! Kate began visiting antique stores to choose pictures and work to return them to their family members. The purpose of the Photo Angel Project is to document success stories and inspire others to search their dusty attic boxes for photos with identifiable information and join in on the fun.
