| One weekend last fall, I went to my mom & dad's house and got crazy with the scanner and
their photo albums. I was thinking that I'd get the pictures posted on the Web right away, but here it is
almost a year later and I'm still working on it. I had grand schemes of putting all of the information
about the pictures in an online, searchable database, but for now I'm just hard wiring everything so
people can at least browse through the images. You can click on any of the pictures below
to view a larger version. There's also an photo index page if you just want to
see just the image thumbnails without the captions. |
| This picture of the Deffner house in Napa was taken
in 1914. When Leonard Deffner died, this house and the surrounding property was left to
Leonard's foster daughter, Louise Gruenhagen (Bruns) and her husband August Gruenhagen. |
