Home Movies Are Tarpon Springs Mystery

Are these your home movies?

The old home movie camera that Jon Worthington's son bought may not be worth much. But the family memories the cassettes hold are priceless.

Now the father and son hope to find the family members shown in these old home movies. Can you help?

Here's what Jon Worthington said on YouTube:

"My son, the future videographer that he is, purchased an old, broken 8mm camera from a thrift store in Tarpon Springs. It came in a camera bag full of accessories. His intentions were to use it as a prop in the movies he makes. The problem is, there were three 8mm cassettes in the bag, and they had some personal memories on them, births, birthdays, baptisms, etc. I am sure the mother does not know these tapes were in the bag, and I can only speculate on the situation that carried that bag to the thrift store."

The camera was purchased at the Shepard Center in Tarpon Springs, according to ABC Action News.

Watch the YouTube video and see if anyone looks familiar.

Jon Worthington adds on YouTube:

BTW, "What Child is This" is me singing and my brother-in-law (George Boulahanis) from Odyssey Greek Band playing guitar. We made it a few years ago just for fun, and now it seems like the perfect song for this video!
