A place that's gone, brought back — and the record that proves it
You have a photo with no address, or a place that isn't there anymore. A house that was torn down. A hometown that got renamed or flooded. A street that stopped looking like itself. I find what was there. Send me one photo or one place and your question. I read the photo for testable claims (signs, shop names, rooflines, a mountain profile, shadow direction), then match each one against historical maps, street view, land records and newspaper archives. What you get: the location or the answer, each load-bearing claim linked to a source you can open yourself, a then-and-now street-level view where it exists, and an explicit written list of what I could NOT confirm and why. Free first look: I tell you what I can and cannot pin before you pay. Then one flat fee. One at a time. Words I answer to: identify this place, where was this photo taken, identify a location, mystery photo, old family photo, what town is this, then and now, vanished place, demolished building, ancestor's hometown, house history, where did my family live, locate an old photo.
