    Who can I leave family heirloom photographs with.
    It may turn out that I have no heirs to leave my family pictures with. I have no nieces or nephews and one sister who had no children. And I could outlive her. I have one son who is 30 years old and still not married and is sterile. I turned 60 in June and all my cousins are as old or older than I am. Some of these pictures are originals and close to 100 years old. Any suggestions.

    Your son comes to mind, since he is your closest family and may well want them.

    Then it is his issue latter what to do with them

    Have you visited sites like ancestory.com and tried to seek out possible others. You might want to scan the pictures you have and share them that way. Also local museums also may be interested in them with that age.

    Hi, sneakums!

    Seeking out the genealogical sites is a great idea! Surely, there must be perhaps very distant relatives somewhere who might be interested in what you have, in one way or another?

    Have you asked your son?

    Thanks!
