A Little Family History
Undated photo of my father and grandfather. The taller gentleman on the right is my grandfather. If you look closely, you'll notice he only has one hand. The other was amputated after a hunting accident when he was about 12 years old (c. 1910). At least one of his grandparents was a white slaveholder from Giles County, TN. Hence the pale skin.

That's pretty cool that you know your family's history. Too many of us don't know or seem to care about examining our past. As families fracture and remarry it gets even harder as they try to bury painful parts of the past.
