My Great Great Grandparents


These are my great, great grandparents Alexander and Martha Mary Boyd (nee Heeps). This is the first photo I’ve ever seen of them!! I just got a book on cd of the Boyd family history which included this photo! I’m very excited and touched. Reading their stories is sometimes heartwarming and sometimes tragic, the families faced many losses and hardships.

    Fabulous photo! I am very into our family history and have been building a pictorial record. I love these grand old pictures. You are fortunate to come by it.

    Thanks Ruby, I love the photos too πŸ™‚ I've also been able to solve a mystery about who my sister looks like when I found a photo of my Great Grandma as a young lady. Are you putting your pictures online? I'd love to see some.

    Kind regards, Kylie πŸ™‚

    Hi Kylie,
    If you go over to my blog, go to the side bar and click on either Memories, Golden Childhood or even History you will see a few old photos that have been posted from time to time on my blog.
