Wake Up! Back Up! Don't Lose Your Blog Content

Boy did I get a huge wake up call last week! For about 24 hours I lost access to all my Blogger content: published and draft posts, comments, statistics, etc.  I nearly had a heart attack when I got this email: I thought it was a scam but at least I had the presence of mind to not click anything in the email itself. Instead, I went to the Blogger dashboard I already had open and clicked "View Blog."  They really had taken it down! I quickly read through what they considered "Malware and Similar Malicious Content," and was confident that there was no way I had violated the terms. My only recourse was to click the "Request Review" button. Reviews were said to take an average of 10 days but could be longer depending on the issue. I never received a confirmation email that I requested the review. Nothing! All I could do was wait.

FAMILY PHOTO FRIDAY


A smiling Grandpa Kozlina holds Tommy, with Grandma and Mom, about 1941. Photo colorized at MyHeritage.

 

By Nancy Gilbride Casey


It's time to share more of the great photos I received from Cousin Marlene (with annotations by Cousin Joe), from Pennsylvania.1


These photos feature our grandparents Thomas and Margaret Kozlina in the early days of their marriage, with my Mom, Anna Margaret Kozlina and her brother Tommy Kozlina, with one image with my Aunt Marian as a baby.

Uncle Tommy and Grandma, on the stairs of the Kozlina home in Lemont Furnace, Fayette, Pennsylvania. 



Uncle Tommy is probably about a year or so old, so likely taken about 1941.

Below, Grandma is celebrated on Mother's Day, May 14, 1944, with Grandpa Kozlina, my Mom, and Uncle Tommy.

Beautiful Grandma!

Grandma and Mom.

Lastly, here is one with Aunt Marian as a baby. Cousin Joe wrote, "Picture taken in Lemont. Home place. This is what yards looked like. Building on right is outside toilet. I tore those down in 1972." Lemont Furnace in Fayette, Pennsylvania, was the home of Grandpa Kozlina's parents, Frank and Louise Kozlina, who emigrated from Croatia in the early 1900s.

Baby Marian, on right, held by Grandpa, about 1946.

Hope you enjoyed these photos. More to come next Family Photo Friday! Special thanks to Cousins Marlene and Joe for sharing and for remembrances.

Until next time...
