this is probably totally irrelevant, but i found some old photographs of my mother when she was a child/teenager and blogged them on myspace. these are my favourite 3.
I think there's interesting line of enquiry emerging here. Family photography or vernacular photography can provide us with an amazing insight into worlds. But as I may have said before, these need to be probably contexted - a number of artists use found images in their work -- have a look at the last few Turner prize entries for example. So perhaps you need to construct a sequence that engages with this family history you love?
