When my youngest brother, Keith, was in school, he had to research our family names. When my grandfather discovered the meaning for the surname of Allen, he agreed with the description, for he maintained the Allen men were as strong as a rock and extremely handsome!
Thank you for sharing the story of our shared great-grandfather, Ann Marie. It is so amazing to learn that we have this family connection.
By the way, through which of George’s children do you descend?
I am a descendant of Ralph…and I think it was fun to discover our connection and the fact that we love to research write…must be n the genes! <3
I love this, it’s so fascinating!
thank you
Interesting slices of lives and how it looked to those who lived it.
Thank you
Your grandfather wasn’t too vain…. that was funny how he agreed on the name meaning. Recheck the first two paragraphs – am I seeing double?
lol…I rechecked…I am not seeing double…at least today anyway…but thanks for the heads up…some days when I am in a hurry…never know what you will find! 😉
It was showing that way to me on all your posts on my phone in my wordpress app. It didn’t show on your site on the web. Looks like all is good
thanks for letting me know…I appreciate your feedback.
I appreciate that you let me know…
