ANCESTOR HOMES

I've been looking through old family photographs my sister has scanned and have been drawn to family pictures taken in front of their homes.  I think this is such a treasure.  I absolutely love seeing my ancestors and their homes!
Vine Cottage in Thatcher, Arizona around 1900
Pictured is my 2nd great grandmother, Sylvia Louise Bentley Sessions, 3rd great grandmother, Sarah Ellen Haws Sessions and my great grandmother, Martha Louise Sessions Huntzinger

Home of my 3rd great grandfather, John Stock in Paris, Utah.
In 2008, my sister and I took an impromtu family history trip.  We knocked on the door and got a tour of the home!   

This year, my goal is to have a family picture taken in front of our home.
