36. Drat, I was looking for the portrait of distant cousin Admiral DeRuyter and his greyhounds

but I cannot locate it on my hard drive or google. Note to self do not allow numbered names for photos. I have a photo of my great-grandparents, also deRuyter and their greyhounds cir 1904.

While I was doing genealogy I realized that the editor of our neighborhood newspaper was a deRuyter so I went to visit him to see if there was any connection. He looked just like that portrait it was spooky. There was no close connection, but his parents and my farming Aunts and Uncles used to winter together in Arizona so he already knew about us.

Thanks, I really enjoy the art you find to post.
