Lynnya,

I think this looks great! I agree with Jo Ann. A lot of times I will add a duplicate layer and if I want lighter I will make choose Screen as the layer, and then I lower the opacity and next do a layer mask to hide all. I will then paint back in with a soft brush what I want lighter. I really like what you have done and except for maybe some you feel too dark, I would be careful to only lighten enough to see their features.

I think the second one looks much better. Without zooming in I can't see how the faces look, but sometimes I'll add an adjustment layer and lighten, slightly, some of the really dark faces.

Alternatively, I'll get the overall image looking bright enough and then add an adjustment layer to darken, slightly, any part that's looking too blown out.

Hi Lynnya.  It looks fine to me.  However I thought it was a little dark.  So I ran your restore through Photoshop/Adjustments/Shadows-Highlights and lightened up the shadows some and I thought that was an improvement.
