Old Negatives

Old Snapshots

These images are from black and white negatives in a packet among my father's photographs, (Kenneth McA Ralston). There are 112 of them size 3.5x3.5 inches. All have deteriorated, these are the best. I have attempted to identify some. I think mostly they are of family members in Chicago. Some of the farm scenes look like our farm buildings on McDonald Road, others do not. No prints of them have been located. {Cousins Betty Ann and Connie have prints of their father in Grandpa's lap sitting in chair, I have added this addition, July 8, 2019.}

The packet had this card enclosed with it

115 films. Up to Jan 1, 1916 + 5 films 120 films Mar. 5, 1916
