History Mystery: Who ARE these people?

Posted on January 30, 2016 by in DiscoverYou

We’re starting our second year of History Mystery teaming up with the Alabama Department of Archives and History to identify unknown individuals in Archive collections. Last year we were able to identify many of the people in historical photos taken by three area photographers. Your assistance is critical in determining who these mystery people are. If you know anyone in these photos contact Meredith McDonough at 334-353-5442, or meredith.mcdonough@archives.alabama.gov, or e-mail Prime at primemontgomery@gmail.com.
