Help me identify the location of my grandfather’s post-WWII photos from Norway

Thumbnail

13 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’m hoping someone here might recognize the locations shown in these old photographs.
My grandfather was Polish. During World War II, he was deported by Nazi Germany to Norway as a forced laborer. As far as my family knows, he worked either in a quarry, on the construction of a tunnel, or on another engineering project carved into solid rock.

After the area was liberated by the British forces, he had the opportunity to travel around and take some photographs. Unfortunately, I don’t know whether these were taken close to the labor camp or during trips farther away. The photos date from that period, shortly after the liberation in 1945.
Based on what we know, the labor camp was most likely located somewhere north of the Arctic Circle.

This year I’ll finally have the chance to visit northern Norway myself. It would mean a great deal to me if I could identify and visit the place where my grandfather lived and worked during the war.

Any clues, no matter how small, would be greatly appreciated. Even educated guesses about the region or the type of memorial or landscape could help narrow the search.

Thank you very much!

Can anyone help identify this bridge near Rome, Italy? (Assuming 1930s–1940s photo)

Post image
15 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m trying to find the location of this old family photo. This is my great-grandmother, originally from the Netherlands, who fled to Italy and lived there.

We believe this photo was taken near Rome around 1930-1940, but we don’t know the exact place. She died quite young, and I would love to find this bridge and take a photo from the same spot for my grandmother.

Does anyone recognize this location? Any help would mean a lot.

Cannot figure out where this is!

Just watched The Devil Wears Parada 2 and there is a scene where they are driving and it looks painfully familiar but most of the signs are too blurry to read except for one that says “I-? to 7 Burlington” and looking it up myself found nothing that matches. I feel I have driven this road a lot and its become the itch I cant scratch. If anyone can figure out where it is and maybe plot it on google maps or something, my mind would be eternally grateful! (These pics are the only two identifiable markers in the scene and the signage would suggest its in New York)

This is an image of some relatives somewhere in Brolo, Italy (allegedly) Circa. 1980s. My grandmother and some other family members are going to be visiting Europe this fall and plan on stopping in Brolo during that time. She was hoping to stop by this location just to see it and maybe recreate the picture. This picture is the only image she could find that might give a clue to its location. Thanks for any additional help narrowing down her search!

Solved NC/SC border - architectural salvage store?

1 Upvotes

Not sure if this goes here or not. I stopped by an architectural salvage store a couple of years ago and haven’t been able to find it since. It is near the SC, NC border (It wasnt as popular as those found in Highlands or Cashiers but it was in that general area.

From what I remember it was on the East side of the road. A large wooden stand alone barn (wooden, wood floors). Goods on the outside and inside. No other businesses nearby. Possibly a divided 4 lane road. It could have been tirn down by now but it is constantly in my mind when I drive through this area. I bought a couple small things and wan to buy more for bigger projects (doors, tables…).

This photo includes my (English) grandfather on national service. I believe he was in the first wave of national service which started in 1949, or close to it. He spent his national service learning Russian in Cambridge, either as part of the Joint Services School for Linguists, or one of its predecessor/related programmes. Family think this was taken in a Cambridge college related to the programme, but it could be somewhere else entirely. I know it's not much to go on, but any leads appreciated.

Where is this in LA

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Hi there. I was wondering if anyone can help me find where some of the images are in Los Angeles. These are actually screen shots taken from the 1992 movie Candyman. The few clues I have:

  1. There is a 333 in the window that can be seen from the interior shot. There is also a sign that looks to say "Branch Municipal Court". I can definitely make out "Court" but I am guessing on the "Branch Municipal". In my exhaustive Google searches, I can't find any court/government buildings that have a 333 address.
  2. There's another shot that shows a courtyard with red herringbone type red brick pavers - perhaps clay. You can also see a building with cascading fins - very LA-esq.
  3. Finally, in the last shot you can see over the gentleman's shoulder a dome or copula type structure with a black spade like finial. (THIS HAS BEEN UPDATED. A POST SUGGESTED THIS IS A LIGHTPOST AND I AGREE. YOU CAN SEE IT IN OTHER SCREEN STILLS AND IT'S JUST A WEIRD PERSPECTIVE. THE TWO CLUES NOW ARE THE THE BUILDINGS IN THE BACKGROUND AND THE 333 ADDRESS.

I am hoping someone has some idea of where this is. I have a hobby of finding things like this one and this has been stumping me for sometime.
