I am doing family history research and came across the photographs of my cousin, Benjamin Francis Kitchens, on your MaritimeQuest web site.  I did not know Kitchens, but am fascinated by the photographs. Would it be possible to learn how to contact the donor of the photographs? His grand mother was my father's sister.

Thank you,
