I usually like to lurk around on social media, only posting something a couple of times a month. But sometimes I'm glad for social media, as I pick up on some fascinating information. The most interesting of late are rare pictures posted by my cousins of the women of my family.
My grandmother.
That had to be a picture from the 1970s.
My great-grandmother.
That picture must have been taken in the 40s or 50s. I remember my great-grandmother. I often went over to her house, located in an intown Atlanta neighborhood known as Dixie Hills, with my grandmother. I remember my great-grandmother. She passed when I was 29 or 30 years old.
Now here' a picture I'd never seen: one of my great-great Grandmother.
Wow! Who knows when that picture was taken? I don't even know her name.
I never met her, so I do not have a memory of her.
But at least I have a picture of her.
How wonderful is that?

Dear Dr. Parker,
ReplyDeleteYou are blessed. Some people are all alone and have no past memories or pics of past generations of their family. Family is a whole LOT!
Peace.

Nice! I think, I have a few pics from the 30s of relatives. I always wondered how the names stopped circling down through the generations. Off topic, but what's you
ReplyDeleter take on the DNA tests out now?
Wow, don't you just love old photos. They take you back in time. The best are the ones of yourself. My brother sent me a pic of us when I was about 6yrs old a few weeks ago. I cried like a baby and laughed at the same time. That pic brought on a flood of emotions I could not hold in. mary in louisiana
