Family History Month

October is officially Family History Month in the United States. So, for this contest, share an image of an ancestor, and if you'd like, share their story in the Discussions section. Is one of them a mystery who you just cannot find information about? Also post it in the discussion area. A long-lost cousin just might be a member of this contest who could provide the ley that unlocks your mystery.

Plus, the host of this contest, Cindy Nunn, have been a professional genealogist and family historian for nearly 35 years, and she will be happy to try and solve your mystery free of charge :)

The Rules:

1) Image must be of one of your ancestors. An ancestor is NOT your child, spouse, sibling or cousin.

2) Not mandatory, but if you have a story to share about your ancestor, or have a mystery that needs solving, post it in the Discussion area.

3) You may submit up to 5 images.

Each participant may submit 5 images.

1)   You must be a member of FineArtAmerica.com in order to cast votes in this contest.   Your account must have been active at least 30 days prior to the start of the contest in order to vote.

2)   You may only vote once per image.

3)   You may vote for as many images as you like... but only once for any given image.

Status: This contest is over.
