While I do not know who these people are the pictures you found, I have encountered the family name of "Leonard" mentioned in each of the places the pictures came from, including Kansas City.<br /><br />One of the Leonard family branches (Samuel Leonard) was a Pilgrim came to the USA on the Mayflower. It would be a total and freaky coincidence if the photo shown by FarSide on Thanksgiving day was a decendent of an "original" pilgrim.Intense Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08441598926026727682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320880361203053560.post-37858652542693886042010-11-26T10:57:57.601-06:002010-11-26T10:57:57.601-06:00Actually, Intense Guy, the pictures are not my fam...Actually, Intense Guy, the pictures are not my family because my dad came from Romania at age 14 and my mother's family came from Germany before WWI. These pictures were found in my Grandparent's attic, left by the people who lived there formerly. ****It is important to note that my grandfather's house was owned by friends of General/Governor George C. Wallace who is from New England. They'd often throw parties for Wallace but this still does not prove that the pics belonged to them. The house had other occupants in 1960.Laurisa Brandthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16021192639589976224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320880361203053560.post-39104515786527505952010-11-25T19:53:12.360-06:002010-11-25T19:53:12.360-06:00Just discovered your blog...what a great idea!

I'm so glad you care about them and the history.

How they got to Alabama is the question. We "know" they missed a turn and saw a parade in Kansas City, which was a little out of the way. :)Intense Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08441598926026727682noreply@blogger.com
