Kermit Krugh from The Homerian

Since I haven't posted in a while (sorry!!!), I though I would add something I found in the archives the other day pertaining to my husband's family. Here are some yearbook pictures of his grandfather, Kermit. Unfortunately Grandpa Kermit died of a heart attack in his 40's, decades before my husband's birth.

 Above: Kermit's freshman year, 1943. He is the farthest to the right in the top row.

Above: Kermit's sophomore year in 1944. He is the second from the left in the first row.

And, my favorite, Kermit's senior picture in 1946. He looks so similar to my husband when he was a senior in high school that it's a little unnerving! 

Local county archives are a great place for digging up old yearbook pictures. A lot of times searching for the pictures are for altruistic or nostalgic reasons, but they can be great additions to your genealogy collections. This is especially true when you find a picture that looks very similar to a living descendant!
