ADN Editor's Note: We received this week's Jamboree in response to Leslie Lawson's tip on labeling class photographs. Thanks to everyone who sent in ideas!

Bring It to the Class Reunion
In reading "Label Class Photos", Leslie suggestion works if you or your kids are currently in school. However, for those of us in our sixties or thereabouts, I suggest taking the class photos to your high school class reunion. There are usually one or two people with remarkable memories, who can identify the class members you can't--even all the way back to kindergarten. It worked for me.

Use Yearbooks from Later Years
My genealogy instincts must have started forming early. When I finally got into genealogy years later in life, I found, to my surprise, that most of my class photos were labeled in my funny little handwriting. But for those who didn't start so early, look at your high school yearbook. Sometimes, by just looking at the names in the yearbook can help put a name with that face in the 5th grade photo that you just can't remember. I used my high school yearbook to identify my eighth-grade graduation photo.

Share Labels with Classmates
I liked the tip from the reader about labeling class photos. I took it one step further. From first grade on, whenever my daughter brought home her class photo, I would enter the list on my computer and print it out on a large label which I put on the back of the picture. Then I would print off labels for each of the kids in the class and send them into the teacher to distribute. I had many parents come up to me over the years and thank me for taking the time to do that.
