Dad , 1945 France , (guy with the Raybans)
My classmates married and were 1st cousins. He got snipped so they couldn't have kids and divorced 5 years later. Often wondered if he regretted the surgery.It is entertaining about the ghosts that come out. I found out that I had another cousin... when he was about 50 years old! Children out of wedlock back in those days were just raised by the mom or grandparents most often, and the dads moved on. Sometimes the dad told his family, sometimes they had no idea. Today those babies are nearly all aborted, killed before they were born. It was tough for those moms in the old days, but still a better choice than to kill a baby. I have a number of friends who wouldn't be here if their mom had this 'choice'.
A good friend that I worked with decades ago married his first cousin. Knowingly, really nice couple. Had one child who died at about 20 from complications, it was tragic. And no, they were not European royalty!
I suspect we've all seen this. It happens, such is life.
When I was in SC, I stayed with a retired Judge & his wife - they showed me the family tree - Direct to Robert E. Lee.Robert E. Lee. Enough said.
