Welcome

I have posted here many of the photos scanned by Bill Shafer Jr. The best way to locate a photo you are interested in is to perform a search on the page (using the Control-F command or by going to the edit tab and selecting Find). Also, I would first recommended clicking on the July 2006 archive link, as this will display all of the pictures posted on this blog.

Please feel free to comment and share any information you may have.

The following is the Forward to the Shafer-Faurschou-Family Pictures, written by Bill Shafer, Jr. on November 12, 2000.

Dear Family: I first started this project with Judd - Asay pictures but soon realized that some of the Shafer - Faurschou pictures I had might be of interest to some Shafer descendants, many of whom were common with some Judd descendants, so I expanded the initial effort to make most of my Shafer - Fourschou pictures available to the rest of the family.
