Found my brother and sisters

Post by M Fowler »

I come from a very large family that was broken up when I was age 4 and most of were sent to an orphanage and the little ones were adopted out never seen again.

Yesterday we found my brother Glenn, and sisters Barbara and Donia. I will also see my sister Linda for the first time later in June at a family wedding. Found my sister Nancy on facebook, haven't seen her since she got married and moved to England.

There were 17 of us kids, yes same mother and father.

What a great two days I've had.

I just want to point out the obvious--that anyone "claiming" to be your long lost brother is really after your amps.

Kidding. Life is sweet! Congrats!

Wow ! Congratulations, Mark.
That's great news.
Sounds like a lot of "catching up" to do there.

And here I thought I was from a large family with 7 of us.

Thanks guys your a wonderful group of guys and gal (Jana babe).

Holy crap my list of nephews and nieces has grown exponentially. :lol:

Some of the first questions my sisters had was "is there a family tree?" So confused with all these names hard to keep straight.

We have a good laugh about that. The rest of Fowler's had stayed connected since the 1970's but the lasted family members are overwhelmed about their large newly discovered family. :lol:
