This is a picture of Paul with a kitten he got for me. I don't remember where he got it and unfortunately my mother wouldn't let me keep it. This picture was taken in my yard in Devon, CT and that is my dog J.J. with Paul.

Date & Place: 1976 in Milford, New Haven County, Connecticut 06460, United States

Hi Nancy -- this doesn't surprise me at all. He loved animals, but we weren't allowed to have them (cats or dogs) when we were younger. Paul did own a hamster he named 'Charles' (not Charlie, etc.) who somehow managed to escape his cage at least annually. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Stephen, I remember a parakeet named Pixie in a small cage in your living room on Loomis Street. Paul could make the parakeet say its own name! I always wanted to get a parakeet myself and name it Pixie.

You have a good memory. My mother owned the parakeets, but we were allowed to have them perch on our fingers or rub their little necks. Interesting story: the first parakeet my mother bought was when we were very young. Occasionally, my mother would open the cage door inside the house and let the bird fly around the living room. One year, when it was beautiful and warm outside, she took the cage outside to let the bird have some fresh air and sunlight. Unfortunately, Paul thought the bird would always return so he climbed up on the railing and opened the door. Needless to say, the bird flew away and that was it -- time to get another one!

Pets are loved members of the household just like family. There's a reason our pets are often called our 'best friends'.

Remembering the companions of our ancestors and those that comforted us in the past. Dog person? Cat person? That's usually the debate when it comes to pets. As of 2022, 70% of U.S. households have pe...

I'm from England, but lived the majority of my life in the US. I've traveled the world as part of corporate America, and have enjoyed interacting and learning from other cultures. As you can tell -- I'm not a writer, but I do have many fond memories. Ever since I was a child, I've felt that cemeteries should be respected as repositories of lives, in some cases lived long before we are born. The stories deserve to be told and remembered, but in most cases, the mute stones don't tell them. I resolved to try to use whatever skills I had to tell the world about my older brother, who wasn't famous but meant the world to me.
I live here in CT with my fantastic wife -- my successful children and my two cute grandchildren live locally.

My name is Lizzie Kunde and I am the newest member of the AncientFaces Support team! See more info about me here: Lizzie - Community Support and I look forward to getting to know our wonderful members. Feel free to reach out with any questions, happy to help :)
My mom's side of the family is Swedish (and still lives in Sweden) and she instilled in me lots of Swedish heritage and traditions which has made me who I am today. My dad's side of the family is German and Irish and the most likely the side of the family I get all my freckles from. Family is so important, and welcome everyone to discover more about them, their history, and share about their loved ones who make up the history of who we are!

I'm a Founder of AncientFaces and support the community answering questions & helping members make connections to the past (thus my official title of Founder & Content and Community Support ). For me, it's been a labor of love for over 20 years. I truly believe with all of my heart that everyone should be remembered for generations to come. I am 2nd generation San Jose and have seen a lot of changes in the area while growing up. We used to be known as the "Valley of Heart's Delight" (because the Valley was covered with orchards and there were many canneries to process the food grown here, which shipped all over the US) - now we have adopted the nickname "Capital of Silicon Valley" and Apple, Ebay, Adobe, Netflix, Facebook, and many more tech companies are within a few miles of my current home in San Jose (including AncientFaces). From a small town of 25,000, we have grown to 1 million plus. And when you add in all of the communities surrounding us (for instance, Saratoga, where I attended high school, living a block from our previous Mayor), we are truly one of the big cities in the US. I am so very proud of my hometown. For more information see Kathy - Founder & Content and Community Director
My family began AncientFaces because we believe that unique photos and stories that show who people are/were should be shared with the world.
