It was then that Ms Copeland discovered her photos had been found in three different locations - with One picked up in Breckinridge County , some 140 Miles Away .

Pamela Compton in Breckinridge County posted The Wedding photo online After Her husband found it on their farm.
" My husband was on the four-wheeler checking to make sure our cattle was alright and He Said the photo was laying Face Down along with siding from homes and pieces of some Heavy Metal from objects that had been blown and carried by the tornado, " Ms Compton told The Bbc .
Her husband brought the photo home and Ms Compton posted it in The Quad State Tornado Found Items group on Facebook, to try and find the owner.
" I never expected to find the Young Lady in the photo, " Ms Compton said. " I knew their heart had to be so heavy from the grief and pain of all the devastation. I never gave up on finding her. "
