My Family Archive

1 Comment

After learning about the Jersey photo archive we were assigned the task of looking into our own family archives. I decided to look into my Dad’s photo timeline and trying to collect a selection of photographs showing him through his life.  After looking through mine and my grandparents selection of photographs the earliest photograph I managed to find of my dad was a picture from 7 and a half months old.

I then found some more photographs of my dad’s childhood; School Photographs, when he first got his glasses, pictures of him and his brothers ect.

One thought on “My Family Archive”

  1. This is a great selection of photos Emily. Do you have any more to continue the story? You seem to stop at about 1990?
    Also can you relate this discovery into the themes ‘ Chance, Change, Challenge’?
