Photo Friday Challenge ::: The Family ...

~ My Family ~
Four Generations ... 
Photo taken about 1919...
from left to right ...
My Great-Great-Grandmother Sussanah ...
My Great-Grandmother Helena Beatrice ...
My Aunt Ebe about 7 years old ~ she recently celebrated her 98th birthday ...
Aunt Ebe is next to her Mum, My Grandmother Ethel Beatrice, my Dad's Mum.
  My Grandma lived till 93 years young. 
A wise, softly spoken, gentle, Virgo woman, clever with needle and 
thread who taught me the value of other people's junk!
Aren't they gorgeous?
I often say I'm blessed ...
to own this beautiful photo makes my heart sing.
Hooray ~ there's a big chance longevity is on my side!

Go HERE to see more Photo Friday Family Challenges ... mine is #90 on the list.

I love that you have that photo and you actually know who they all are. So often records are not kept and we have old photos of 'somebody' in the family!

i so much love this. why are the ladies on the left wearing black? i love old photos, your generations long gone in the past...you can look back at them as you remember stories told, and then pass it all along yourself.
