COUSIN RON

I always feel like I've won something when I'm contacted by another one of my relatives on my father's side.

My Dad as I've mention before never talked about his side of the family. My Mom and some of my cousins have said that the split was racial.  I don't think so.  I'm hoping to get to the bottom and with my two new found cousins I'm hoping we can put together more of our past.

When I got in contact with Barbara she was not aware that she had family right in the city.  The same is true with Ron, but I'm so glad that we have found each other.

Barbara has shared photos with me and so has Ron.

I now know what my Great grandfather looked like.

These two people are my Great Grandfather and Grandmother.

52 Week Challenge

A few of my colleagues on Facebook have taken up a challenge to write about one person from their tree each week for a total of 52 week.

They threw down the gauntlet and I have picked it up.  I have some catching up to do but let's see if i can do it.
