52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks – Week 24: Father’s Day

PROMPT: In the US, Father’s Day is this coming Sunday (June 20), so what better time to have the theme of “Father’s Day”? 

In an attempt to create a quick post in order to get back on track with the 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks Challenge, I submit some of my favorite family photos of fathers and their descendants.

My father as an infant, held by his paternal grandfather. My Dad’s father stands next to them. My Dad’s paternal grandmother is seated.
The same family members above with the addition of my father’s mother. My dapper Dad stands in front. Behind him are his paternal grandparents and his father and mother.
My father stands with his mother to his left. She stands next to her own father.
My mother as a little girl, standing in front of her father. Seated are her great-grandmother and standing at right is her paternal grandmother
And, finally, one of my favorite photos of my Dad and me!
