I think they're gross - but they were very popular in the late 1800's. Even worth (to me) were rings that women would wear of their late fiance or husband's hair - blech.
Another really weird thing they did then was if they had a family photo made - they'd airbrush anyone who happened to pass away into the photo! So you'd see this perfectlly normal family, wearing 1890's clothing, and a War Between the States soldier hovering in uniform!
