HANNIG ULRIKSEN family crossing the Atlantic between Chile and Germany, originally uploaded by rsepulveda.
Most of us have gazillion of old pictures at home that we rarely look at or share with family. By us, I mean genealogists who collect all family documents from all family members (photocopies, pictures, etc.).
I started uploading some pictures recently on Flickr where the note-on-a-picture is a wonder to help identify who's who. On this picture for instance, you see my great-great-grandparents Stanislaus HANNIG and Berta ULRIKSEN SIEMSEN on a boat crossing the Atlantic between Germany and Chile, with their 5 kids. I don't remember the exact date of the trip off the tip of my head, but it should be around 1905 or so.
Have a look, I uploaded about 380 pictures on this set, and it includes also lots of old pictures of Chile that were used in postcards used between my family members.
