Delete2 for the price of 1! Alexander certainly had some wavy hair. I bet the women loved him.

Thank you for visiting Diane! Many more photos to come :)
DeleteThat's a lot of A's. Still envy your photos.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't choose between them!
DeleteI am a historian and am fascinated by family photographs and primary source documents. It is so good when a link can be drawn from now to then!
ReplyDeleteI look forward to learning more about your family.
And one of those quirkies. I just read a family story which involves November 4 birthdays. The first week of November is my birthday week -- I was born on maternal grandfather's birthday, two days later than my paternal grandfather's birthday, and one day after my husband's birthday. This doesn't include other relatives, friends, those I've met and have yet to met. Perhaps I should change my theme to: The first week of November. :)
