Unsure when these were taken, but they were born in the 1850s and she died in the 1910s, him in the 1920s. Both born, and died in Barbados. Mother of 14 children over 20 years, 6 died before they were a year old, including a set of twin girls who lived only a month.

My grandpa was from the last generation of Geordie sailors. He was an engineer for the merchant navy, hence the great uniform. Gran stayed home and cared for my mom and her siblings while grandpa was out sailing. He once showed me a map of all the voyages he had been on, and i wish i knew what happened to it.

Back when men were men, and would do drag and kill Nazis

Wonder what he was playing. Rest in peace❤️

The stories from this trip are wild. edit: It was a school trip.

Our ‘90’s fashion and hair.

Picture of me in 1980 being thrown in the air by my Opa. That jumpsuit was fly back then I imagine.

Early 2000’s. Is this old enough for old school cool? We all decided to go as a group for prom, with no one having a date.

I believe this was a candid shot someone took of him. My other grandfather was in the army during WW2, but I have yet to dig up that photo again. I came across this one today, while sifting through old items. I believe this picture was taken before Pearl Harbor was bombed; the location where he was stationed.

Awesome build of the knight rider car David Hasselhoff drove in the show (1982-86)
