D. Sue Kissel will discuss " Guidelines for Dating Early Photographs."
Anyone who "dabbles" in genealogy collects images of family. To see their physical forms can be magical. Not everyone is lucky enough to have photographs with a complete label - who, what, when, and where this photograph was taken. Photographs are artifacts and documents that can be used to form the basis of conclusions in genealogical research. The same questions that Suzanne Brayer posed about written documents also apply to images. Sue Kissel, a long time avid genealogist, will discuss some guidelines for dating early photographs - perhaps knowing an approximate when may help sort out the who.
most of us, represents the 'melting pot' of American culture.

She is the past President of the Family History Center of Arizona, a member of The American Council of Professional Genealogists, as well as numerous local and national societies. She has taught genealogy classes and spoken to numerous groups throughout Arizona. She is a lecturer, teacher and genealogist with over 25 years' experience.
