ReplyDeleteThe first to get all the men correct.
Delete6/8 is an excellent effort and you were so close. You had 6e. These two are the same person so do look alike! Sorry a little trick that I threw in.
I'm totally confused I should not have looked at others' choices first.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Bob. I didn't make it easy and there are a few tricks in there.
DeleteWhat an original idea and a wonderful set of portraits. It was too difficult for me, though, so I am passing on the matching challenge.
ReplyDeleteThere are four generations of females in there, which means that both my grandmother and great grandmother are pictured on both rows!
DeleteMany people have picked the similarity :)
What a great idea for this theme.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Something different :)

5=e
6=f

8=h
I tried my best.
4/8 - you got all the fathers and sons
DeleteHere are my best guesses:
ReplyDeleteFathers/Sons:
1 = c
2 = a
3 = d
4 = b
Mothers/Daughters:
5 = e
6 = h
7 = f
8 = g
6/8. SO close. I tricked you! 8g are the same person so they do look alike.
DeleteWhat a clever idea Sharon!!
ReplyDeleteMy guesses are:
1-c
2-a
3-d
4-b
5-g
6-h
7-f
8-8
I wonder how many of them are related other than as parent-child? There seemed to be quite a few correlations.
Thanks!1
Pauleen
We have a WINNER! 8/8 - You are very observant as there are a number of correlations. 6e are both my grandmother and 8g are both her mother (my great grandmother).
DeleteWell Done Pauleen.
I was going to offer assistance in researching family history to the winner.........but you don't need my help as I think you could held me :)
I think I'll take an IOU on that...never know when a different set of eyes will assist :-) It was fun!
DeleteAny time :)
DeleteWhat great fun :
ReplyDelete1c 2a 3d 4b 5g 6h 7e 8f
Very close 6/8.
DeleteSomebody once told me that, for men and their sons, look at their EARS! For women and their daughters, its the MOUTH or NOSE!
ReplyDeleteYes, the ears give away a couple of the fathers and sons above.
DeleteI am not sure that you can guess the mothers and daughters the same way though.
I am not looking at what others said. Those bushy beards distracted me, this was fun & I might be way off, but

1/8. Thanks for having a go. Yes the busy beards did confuse things. No one picked 3c, they are the same person at different ages.
DeleteWhat a great post, Sharon. I'll be interested to see the results. It's too early on a Sunday morning for me to even attempt an answer ;)
ReplyDeleteLol. I am not a morning person either :)

It's very hard to tell if 5 goes with f or if 7 goes with f. And g could also go with either 5 or 7. I wondered if I should assume that you would put them out of order so that the matches wouldn't be beneath each other or if you might trick us to have them lined up in order! A conundrum ... and as I go back, I'm completely rethinking the women. Maybe I should add my 2nd guesses as a separate list! lol
Lol. Very close Kathy with 6/8. All the men are correct and I also confused you with 6e, as they do look alike as they are the same person, my grandmother. 8h is grandmother and granddaughter so they look alike too.
DeleteWell Done.
Enjoyed your pictures and the game --- also the Sepian participation.
ReplyDeleteThankyou Joan. Yes the Sepians are a great interactive group.
DeleteWhat a wonderful idea for a game! I can't even begin match them, but enjoyed trying.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sheryl. I think I would struggle if I didn't know them so some people have done really well.
DeleteOh what fun, I saw this yesterday but didn't have enough time so here I am now! 1. d 2. a 3. b 4. c 5. h 6. e 7. f 8. g
ReplyDeleteThank you for trying Karen. 2/8. I have put the answers up now.
