Episode 472 - "Photo Angel" Finds And Gifts Antique Pics To Descendants / Researching Cuban Records


Listen Later

Host Scott Fisher opens the show with David Allen Lambert, Chief Genealogist of the New England Historic Genealogical Society and AmericanAncestors.org. Family Histoire News begins with the story of a pair of adopted siblings who learned something remarkable about each other. Then, DNA has come through again in another cold case. One hundred eleven years since its sinking, Titanic continues to make news. David has the latest. Another ship wreck has been found, this time in the Great Lakes. David explains. Next, Amelia Earhart continues to fascinate, and a new clue concerning her disappearance is being investigated.

Fisher visits with "The Photo Angel," Kate Kelley. A few years ago, Kate started investigating old photos found in antique stores that identify the person in the image. She would then research them, track down descendants of the ancestor, and pass the photo along. She's done this with thousands of pictures sent all over the world!

Then, Elizabeth Murray Vargas of sponsor Legacy Tree Genealogists comes on to talk about the difficult challenge of researching Cuban ancestry.

In Segments 4 and 5, David returns for Ask Us Anything.

That's all this week on Extreme Genes, America's Family History Show!
