Yes, I had! They images are great. Looks like they have updated the page since the last time I looked at it. I had saved the images for my own personal files awhile ago, but was hesitant to post them here due to their copyright. We can certainly link to the page however and that is probably the appropriate thing to do. As to additional photos of Dr. John - I do have more, but I have been leaning toward posting just a couple of "important" ones on werelate and then perhaps linking to a photo-sharing site like Flikr for the rest. There are a lot of them and I do want to share them because I think that they should be available for future generations, but I also don't want to clutter up his page too much. I have been pondering the best way to handle this for a while. What do you think? --Cos1776 12:48, 20 June 2012 (EDT)

I think a link to their site would be appropriate, just so others (and we) can find them again easily.

As for your photos, I have a bunch on Flickr but it's tough to share with those who don't have accounts, esp. if you have stuff that you don't want open to all to see. Depends on permissions for each photo I think. Are you posting on Ancestry too?--Sketchdon 15:54, 20 June 2012 (EDT)

I did not know about this one. We could start a page for Rev. George Glaah, D.D. as well (if it doesn't already exist, of course). A random act of genealogical kindness, right? :) --Cos1776 12:48, 20 June 2012 (EDT)
