That there are photos of this man is a big deal to me.  

There are lots of really wild and complicated details and twists and turns in the thing, but the short story is that this is my grandfather’s biological father who died in a car crash when my grandfather was about five years old.   I did not know we had any photos of him.  I certainly did not know that we had everything we do on him.  (I have every single receipt that my great-grandmother got for services related to his accident, hospitalization and subsequent funeral.  It is Overwhelming.)

I’d been looking for why everyone was telling me my family was Scottish and was finding it exactly nowhere until I discovered this cache of photos and details from this man’s family.  

So this is sort of a non-eventful image cleanup, but it’s a big deal for me to have it.
