Genealogy is like a jigsaw puzzle, but you don't have the box top, so you don't know what the picture is supposed to look like. As you start putting the puzzle together, you realize some pieces are missing, and eventually you figure out that some of the pieces you started with don't actually belong to this puzzle. I'll help you discover the right pieces for your puzzle and assemble them into a picture of your family.

Father's Day: Siblings and Children
This year for Father's Day I wanted to show a photograph of my father with his father, but I ran into a problem very quickly: I don't have any. I don't know if that was accidental or deliberate, but with all the photos I have, not a single one shows my father and grandfather together. Admittedly, my grandfather was apparently the semiofficial photographer for the Sellers family, because he is in very few photos himself, maybe only half a dozen. But it still seems a little odd.
What I do have, however, are photos of my father with his sister (half-sister, actually) from his mother, with all three sisters (half-sisters) from his father, and with all four of his children.

My Father through the Years
Heavily weighted toward more recent years, but I was able to find photos with all three wives! Happy Father's Day!
