Just today, I received a lovely present in the form of a painting. Now, I didn't get the original painting; however, I did get something even better. A digital copy!
This picture of the painting allows me to really zoom in on the features of the subject. The subject in the pictures is none other than the brother of my 4g grandfather, of whose surname I was born with. There have been so many generations of male blood passed down that I am looking intently at the photo to see if I can find any feminine traces of me.
Do I see any trace of me? Why, I think I do in the shape of the mouth. Cool.
Of course, I think my left side is my better side for pics and the subject chose his right. No matter. We're kin.
Genealogy. Ya just gotta love it! And copies of the documents or photos are just fantastic!
Ahhh, genealogy. A glimpse of the past shows of what I am made.....
