New Cousins, Now and Then

The Holidays are considered Family Time. Families take the time to visit each other at this time of year when they may rarely see each other for the rest of the year.

In this post I remember family in days past and celebrate getting to know a cousin I did not know I had. The cousin I did not know I had I had actually met when I was 6 and she and her twin brother were 3 or 4. To see those pictures, go over to My Parents lives in Pictures.

The Cousins from the past, are still cousins and from all indications still living and kicking around. In these pictures however they are young and in the year 1949, June to be precise.

I had just been adopted and was getting to meet my New Family.



Allen, Janette, and Diane were Earle and Versa Brown Pearson's children. This is at my house.



Mom and Dad did the rounds to let me meet my new family.



I never really got to know Allen. Janette got married when I was about 10. Diane was a year younger than me so she was the one I git to know best.



I guess I was averting my eyes to save the lady's honor!!
