Maybe someday, somewhere, a newspaper will appear online with an obituary. Chances are it won't give me all the information I want but it at least names Christian as Mary's husband, I'd be thrilled.

The site has a selection of images in which you can type the words you choose, then save the image and use it how you will. Most of the images are fairly modern - I found just a few that I would use with a blog post about my ancestors. I don't know how often they add new images.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6892358786681938797.post-85994246687316218712014-09-04T23:28:17.002-04:002014-09-04T23:28:17.002-04:00Thanks, Dara.

There are several categories with a dozen or so images in each category. To be honest, there are only a few of their images I would use on a family history blog but this one seemed perfect for this post.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6892358786681938797.post-18235066900740456942014-09-04T21:19:50.534-04:002014-09-04T21:19:50.534-04:00Oh if only..........I have some of the same kinds ...Oh if only..........I have some of the same kinds of wishes!

How about a post on creating newspaper headline images for the uninitiated such as Dar and me? ;-)Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14139639019457759712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6892358786681938797.post-25553833456510078812014-09-04T04:06:40.048-04:002014-09-04T04:06:40.048-04:00Love it Nancy and hope your wish comes true!
