The residents of Lewisham and their ancestors have come from every corner of the globe. Most images of these people have yet to be seen by the wider public. Unfortunately, in a few years, many precious, historic images will be dust, especially the mass-produced colour images of the 1970's and 80's. It is important that they are preserved, and publishing them online is one way of doing so, and sharing them with the world.
There were a few layout glitches over the past few months. And so we didn't post. But as everything now seems OK, there will be new posts soon.
If you have any images which qualify (of Lewisham residents or their ancestors) and would like to contribute, please let us know via comments. We desperately need images of family members at work or in their working clothes. These are naturally among the rarest of images of people, but are some of the most revealing and valuable.
Only just found your site - are you still going to update?
