The Photo Detective

The Man Behind Dead Fred


Listen Later

Joe Bott is passionate about reuniting pictures with families. That’s the premise behind DeadFred, the oldest photo reunion site.

We talk about when and why Joe started Dead Fred, and we find out if there is a real Fred.

Ways you can use the site:

You can search for missing family photos by surname or place
You can upload images for others to find
You can research photographers
Each image file contains all the information that the submitter has about the picture. Have you found one of your family photos on the site? It may be sent to you.

Joe has a favorite photo reunion story. It’s a big one.

I'm thrilled to be offering something new. Photo investigations. These collaborative one-on-one sessions. Look at your family photos then you and I meet to discuss your mystery images. And find out how each clue and hint might contribute to your family history. Find out more by going to maureentaylor.com and clicking on family photo investigations
