Photos
Boy, do we collect photos... In fact, thousands of 'em!
The East Tennessee & Southwest Virginia Digital Archives now includes over 50,000 digital images of historical and genealogical photos and documents. The collection includes scanned images of people, families, farms, homes, Bible records, tombstones, wills, marriages, vital stats, ledgers, diaries, books, and other historical and genealogical memorabilia.
Finding a photograph of your ancestor
E-mail us to see if we have any photos of your ancestor. Be sure to include your full name, your U.S. postal address, your e-mail address, your ancestor's name, and how he or she is related to you. Although our entire collection is not completely indexed to date, we will be happy to search through the portions that are already indexed.
Submitting your photographs
Many people across the US have shared pictures with us over the years. You may submit digital photos via e-mail, or bring them to the Sullivan County Archives. Normally, we can scan your photos while you wait. We will assign a 5-digit number to your photograph, along with your name and contact information. This will allow others who are researching the same information to contact you in the future.
