What's Up Everyone?

Same as @DianneN, I toss them. I have enough stuff without keeping things that have no meaning to me.

It's sad that no one knows who they are but I would toss them too

I would take pictures of them and go to social media to ask... We have had a few storage units that we lost through the years. I only WISH someone would find our pictures and give them back to me.

I toss them. Who wants extra baggage and clutter.

I'd be tossing them too but really, really hoping that no-one was missing them.

I wonder why the albums were left behind? - some family member could have wanted them.

How old are the photos? You might be able to scan some of them and post online to see if someone can identify who the people are. That could even make a very good "viral news story", because there are people all over the world who could potentially try and identify the people in the pictures. With so many facial recognition software programs on social media and phone apps, it is probably easier now than it ever has been before! You may also want to consider making digital copies to preserve a bit of history before you throw them away. You could do this by scanning them and upload to a website like Dropbox just in case a friend or family member would come out of the woodwork interested in them. I've recently started exploring more and more about genealogy and family history, and I think it is fascinating stuff. {I actually am starting a blog on the topic!} Sadly, many of my family members do not hold onto things like photos, nor do they want to dig up old buried stories and memories because it can be difficult when you're looking at pictures of people who have passed on or they have had problems with. Still though, it is nice to preserve some of the history and stories associated with times gone past - there are often lessons we can learn from the past to hopefully try and make the world a little better of a place in the future!

I would definitely get rid of them. Why would I keep old photos of people I know nothing about.

Threw them away if you do not know who the people in the photos are.

Sad tou cant find the owners or their family members

Where did you get them from?
