I was in Michigan last week and came across a very old Parish family photo album. Most of the pictures seem to centre around Edward and Ann Parish, and I assume their family.The pictures were taken in studios in Elkhart, Columbia, South Whitley,and Warsaw Indiana to name the ones I can see. There are over 50 Photo's , many of them on copper plates, in a well worn red velvet album with a silver clasp..
I felt compelled to "rescue" the Album, having a keen interest in my own family history. The task now is to find the descendants and put it back into the family, or to good use with someone or a group who are researching the Parish's.
If anyone has an interest, please get in touch !
