I created this page to
give a little family history and to share a few family photographs. It
will be a long, slow process to collect all the information I want, so
please come again to check for any updates. I hope you find it interesting.
I've kept image sizes small to aid downloading.
As I managed to scan these
family photos, I realised I had many photos of friends I wanted to share
with the world too. So, I have a new page, Friends
of Dave. It's another photo album of special people.
Special thanks to Hank Stinson
and Cameron Bales for scanning some of these images.
