David, when I inherited a HUGE pile of old family photos I spent a long time scanning. It got me into genealogy. I ended up getting Ancestry.com desktop, and then uploaded the tree to the internet. I have found distant cousins that loved to see photos of their great grandparents and cousins.
They supplied me with photos I had never seen. One distant cousin was just thrilled to see a photo of their great grandfather's grave site and know where he was, right here in OKC in the same cemetery as my parents.
It gets very addictive. The best part is I have an app on my phone that I can access the site and look up a photo in my family tree, or the birthday, date of marriage, or death of any of the relatives at any time.
