My great grandfather left me some personal items. In those personal items was a photo album that could be meaningful and precious to his descendants. Story goes he found them during World War II. I would love to know the best way to identify him or his descendants, very likely German, and return it? Any direction at all would be appreciated - moderators if this isn't the best place to make this post please let me know.
