My great great grandfather and his wife had seven children. One of which was my great grandfather, the father of my grandmother. My grandmother's father was born on May 18, 1886. He was from Eastern North Carolina. My grandmother had six brothers and sisters. Two of them died as infants. My grandmother was born in Moyock, North Carolina. She (grandmother) was born on September 19, 1929.

My grandfather, who died in February 1998 was born in Windsor, North Carolina. He (grandfather) was in the Navy. Before retiring from the Navy, my grandparents had four children, three girls (my aunts) and one boy (my father). All three of my aunts were born in Portsmouth, Virginia. My father was born in Elizabeth City, North Carolina. My father is the youngest of all the children. After all the kids were born, my grandfather retired from the Navy and took a job in Gainesville, Georgia.
Gainesville is where most of my family now resides. I was born in Gainesville, along with three of my cousins. My sister was born in California. Two of our cousins were born overseas. One is adopted from China. The other was born in Okanawa, a Japanese territory, but at the time it was a territory of the United States. I had a cousin who died at 22-months old. He would've been the third oldest out of all the cousins. Now in 2011, my grandmother has seven great grandchildren. Three of my cousins have children, and my sister has a little girl.
On my mothers' side of the family, I have two more nationalities from this side. They are German and French. My grandmother (My moms' mother) helped me with this side of the family. Her dad was of German descent (My great-great-great grandfather) and the French descent comes in somewhere around her great great grandmother. My grandmother is originally from Kansas. She was born on September 5, 1940, but in 1955 she moved to California and has been there ever since. My mom is from California, along with my sister. My moms' dad (my grandfather) was born in Gainesville on March 3, 1935. He died in February of 1999. I do not have any information about just his side of the family. Most of the information pertains to my grandmothers' side of the family.

My grandmother was able to trace her family history all the way back to my great-great-great-great grandparents. They were born in 1837 and 1838. My relatives come from different states. Kentucky, Texas, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, and California.
My two great aunts (my grandmother's sisters') live in California. My aunt and my two cousins also live in California. When I flew out there this summer, I was able to see all my relatives who live there. It is the first time that I can remember seeing everyone on one visit while I've been out there. My grandmother sent me pictures to post, and with them are descriptions. They are of old relatives of the family, along with a link to a Sears catalog posting, which my grandmothers' family bought and built a house from this catalog.
