Daddy and Most of his Siblings


Here is Daddy and all his siblings except one brother, W.C. They are lined up according to their age.

Left to right: Dick, Stanley, Doug, Jack, Ed (Daddy), Bus, Bee, and Herbert. All the brothers have noses that appear to be broken, probably because they probably were broken - the brothers were pretty rowdy in their youth.

  1. Gee, that's a huge family, Eddie! My mom had 4 brothers and a sister, and I thought that was a big family!

  2. Judy,
    My mother's family is even larger (12). And gender-wise more evenly distributed.

  3. You must have had some GREAT family reunions. How did you ever remember who each one was?

  4. Judy,
    The family reunions are big. My father's youngest brother, Dick, had a dozen kids, and some of them had up to six kids... and the bad thing, most of them look about the same, so I am constantly getting their names confused.
    But that was no problem on my mother's side when she and her siblings were alive. They couldn't get in the same room without fighing (verbally) with each other, therefore, the only type of family get-togethers were at funerals.
