I have Amazon Prime and Amazon Photos has unlimited photo storage that you can create an album and share the photos with your siblings with an e-mail link sent to them. Then they can download whatever photo they want at full resolution. It's a Prime perk.

Thank you sir. What a surprise; as a Prime member, I didnt know of this perk but will surely investigate.

Check out Amazon for a 10 pack of 16 GB USB Memory Drives for about $25-30. No problems with email, computer make, etc. just format to PC std. Macs will read about anything.

I had that issue many years ago. Had my Mom write on back of every photo “who, what, where and when”. When she passed, I did a genealogy chart of five generations, including photos of all involved. Touched up all photos in PS, made DVD’s of all photos sent to everybody, included the genealogy data and had a printer send out the finished gene chart on 75 year color archival heavy paper and Mailed in sealed Mailing heavy Tubes.
Every family member, all generations, received their copies. Took a year to complete, but a promise to Mom is… well…
Today I would just use economical thumb drives!

Thanks for your reply sir. Thumb drives were suggested in an earlier response, which I'll consider.

Macs can read just about anything, but they cannot write to drives formatted NTFS. If someone wants to share back and forth where one party has a Mac, it is best to format exFAT, particularly if any large files are involved.

Just don’t ever unplug an ExFAT drive from a Mac WITHOUT first dragging it to the trash can icon (i.e.; ejecting it). Doing so can corrupt open files.
