Re: BL: View old postcards from "your" place at our page!

Nina...

Does a postcard exist of Tjärnö or Saltö?...Tjärnö is a beautiful little
island near Strömstad where my father's uncle, Hilmer Hansson
(deceased), was the postmaster and schoolmaster...My father spent his
boyhood summers on Tjärnö...I believe Hilmer's sister (i.e. my father's
aunt) lived nearby in Skee and one of Hilmer's wives was born in
Skee...Hilmer is buried in the Tjärnö church graveyard (kyrkogård)...

About one year ago I downloaded a couple dozen stunning photographs of
Strömstad and surroundings from a web site whose URL I can no longer
remember...I could share them on the List's Home page, but I am hesitant
because I don't know if they were prohibited from redistribution by
whoever took them...As the moderator, I figured I'd first ask...What do
you think?...

Jag älskar Bohuslän!!
