Family photographs, place by place

Heritage Atlas

A shared map of family photographs from across the country — homesteads, farms, main streets, reunions and the people in them. Zoom in, click a pin, and see where families put down roots.

How it works

Anyone can add a photograph. Sign in, upload the picture, and drop a pin on the town, county or general area it belongs to. Names, dates and stories are optional.

Every photo is reviewed before it appears on the map. You can edit or remove your own photos at any time from My photos. Locations are rounded to about half a mile, and we remove hidden location data from files when you upload.
