NYC Police Department Photos Over 100 Years to be Made Public
The New York City Police Department has photos over 100 years old documenting the history of NYC. The photos are being digitized and will be made available to the public-it might take 20 years to complete the digitization.. The photos range from the 1800s to today and show buildings as well as people. The photos are being donated to the NYC Municipal Archives—so far 65,000 frames covering four years have been donated. A CBS exclusive report talks about the photos and they went to the basement of police headquarters to interview staff. The article which includes a video may be read at: https://tinyurl.com/y3m7wef8

* Are you related to the DILLON, MURRAY or SWEENEY families? elthamhistory
The Eltham Cemetery Trust needs your help.
Are you related in some way to Michael Dillon (1851-1916) or Bridget Cecilia Dillon (1849-1927) who are buried in the Eltham Cemetery?
It is our understanding from a rudimentary search of records available from Ancestry.comthat Bridget was the daughter of John Wright MURRAY(1816-1867) and Mary SWEENEY(1833-1909). She married Hamilton DRAIN(1847-1886) in 1884 and they had a daughter, Mary Ellen DRAIN(1886-1888).
Following husband Hamilton Drain's death in 1886, and her infant daughter Mary's death in 1888, Bridget married Michael Dillon in 1894. It appears that she and Michael had no children together.
Electoral roll records indicate that Michael was a farmer and that he and Bridget lived in Research, Vic.
