Vintage Photos


We're sharing some vintage Grand family snapshots and portraits on this page.  So, email us your old photos and we'll get them up on the page for all of the family to enjoy.  Make sure that you give the date of the photo and who's pictured in it, if possible.
 


I'll get things started...
If I have the information wrong in the captions, please correct me.  

 If you'd like to download any of these photos to your own computer just CLICK on the photo and when it opens the photo in a new page, RIGHT CLICK on the photo and choose "SAVE IMAGE AS" then select a file on your computer to save it in and give it a name. Now click the black X in the upper right hand corner to go back to this page. It's as easy as that.
