Fifty and Sixty year old Orphans





The Carlsbad Williamsons and the El Paso Williamsons. Double cousins. Their parents, Clara and her sister, Mary, married brothers named Joe and Bill. So, they shared the same set of grandparents. This bottom picture shows the eight children of Clara and Joe, and the three of Bill and Mary.

The middle picture is the cousins and their spouses. And the top picture has cousins, spouses, children and grandchildren. And that is not even all of us !!!

and a set of triplets---Bob's "little" sisters turned fifty. Can you imagine having five boys, and then triplet girls?

I could be wrong, but I think there are three pastors in the top picture, three professors, five teachers, 23 college grads, two nurses, seven with post graduate degrees, and all believers, and no telling how many Sunday School teachers.

We are missing some of the third and fourth generation cousins---so if everyone descended from the two sisters and two brothers had been there, we'd need to fit two dozen more in that shot. But, I doubt we'll all be together now until heaven.

And they say our family tree don't branch... HA!
