can't do this without the negative adapter. I am willing
to scan your old negative FREE (provided I don't get
overwelmed). and burn a CD. or e-mail the finished photos
to you. Inclose a self addressed stamped envelope for
negative returns. and e-mail address if you prefer
photographs as e-mail attachments. If you want
photographs on a CD or DVD video call me first at

My Life is kind of like a Roll of Toilet Paper, Rather insignivicant but used by many Isn't it funny that people who contribute the least in a social group, complain the most. I don't really care how people spend their money or how they live their Lives, as long as they don't dump the concequences on someone else. |

My Blog
|
Megathena I own the domain name Megathena.com.org.net and .info. The name was originally aquired to represent an Ideal City which I describe at http://Megathena.info but since it is an uncommon name I've found it convienient as an internet identification for many of my accounts. |
For some reason the link above dosn't work for twitter you actually need to type in h t t p : / / t w i t t e r . c o m / m e g a t h e n a into your browsers navagation bar. I
became aware of twitter by watching CNN's Rick Sanchez.
Originally it was just a method to voice my opinion on
some issues, but as I started using twitter I though it
would integrate well with my other networking and enhance
my social contacts. It's kind of a mix between chat and
blogging. It would have come in real handy a few days ago
when my grandaughter had her second daughter. My second
great grandchild. |

I would like to summarize the purpose of this web page:
1. To exhibit my grandfather photographs.
My grandfather Virgil Ware was a professional photographer
between about 1900 and 1942 in and around Pulaski, Casey Counties
Kentucky. 610 negatives have survived. About 1980 my aunt Estella
Hall salvaged the 610 glass negatives that I have reproduced plus
a few more that have disappeared. She published a book in 1982
and identified some of the people. I have since identified a few
more but most of the subjects (many excellent portraits) remain
unidentified. Every year that goes by the chances of Identifying
precious pictures of our ancestors diminishes. Aunt Estella
published many of the photographs in the Casey County newspaper
but now internet exposure can reach a much greater audience. I
urge everyone who have ancestors from Kentucky especially any
surnames in my genealogy program to examine the photographs on my
msn newsgroup. There are 5 folders that contain grandpa's photos
- labeled 1.) Glass Negatives (155 photos) 2.) Plastic Negatives
(171 photos) 3. New Glass Negatives (130 photos) 4.) Plastic
(Film) Negatives (72 photos) and 5.) Hatter Creek (82 photos from
Hatter Creek School).
2. The
Ware Genealogy program:
I have spent years inputing data into the Legacy program. There
are now almost 4,000 individuals linked and almost 750 unique
Surnames. Why? It's the basic foundation for everything I do in
piecing together family ties including the Ware Family Reunion.
As a child I remember the Ware Family Reunion was no more about
the Ware's than it was about the Cannon's, or the McKee's, the
Apples or the Haggard's. Now hosting the Reunion I have found
relatives from all over the U.S. that have facinating stories
about my gggg grandparents. and Photographs of my grandparents
uncles and aunts. We might have squables within the famiy but
it's a really big world out there and in reality family have many
more things in common than they have differences. even 10th
cousins twice removed. Also the Ware DNA project allows us for
the first time in history the ability to bridge the gap in
tracing family lines where birth and other records have been
destroyed. We can trace the migration of family and understand
more about ourselves.
3. Social Networking:
I don't use the telephone very much. flashbacks from high long
distance fees. My wife Carol does. Our immediate family has
scattered throughout the USA and even beyond, and long lost
relatives are now entering our lives more and more through the
internet. So this homepage has become a central point of contact
for Family and Friends. I know there are many other networking
tools eg. Facebook, myspace, classmates and others that you and I
may be associated with. The ones I have listed here have specific
purpose and complement each other rather than repeat information.
I hope you will take time to expore some of them and keep in
touch.
