About a week before New Years, I was contacted by a gentleman that is a descendant of my great-great grandmother's sister. He came across a posting of mine to a Surname Registry on the Genealogical Society's page where my great-great grandmother's family settled after coming to Canada from Scotland in 1874. He was only to happy to share information on his part in our Reid tree, and if that wasn't enough, he shared this wonderful photo. It TRULY was the highlite of my week as I had never before seen a photo of my great-great grandparents, Michael and Agnes, who are picture on the far right of the photo. Add to that that two of Agnes's sisters are also pictured as well as her father, my great-great-great grandfather, and you would swear it was Christmas morning and I was seven again!

It is so much fun when the names come to life with a face. These things are so rare! I love the picture.
