Do You Have A Birthmark?

Tweet

In my family there is a very strong gene that has been passed down for at least EIGHT generations that we know of. If you look at my profile photo, you will notice a white streak in the front of my hair. I was born with that. I inherited it from my father, his mother and his grandmother and I passed it down to my children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Several of my father’s sisters and their offspring also have it and so I have numerous cousins who have it and my younger brother has it and also his daughters. I will put some photos up of some of them and let you see what I’m talking about. Most of the time, when I was growing up, I was either accused of bleaching my hair or I was made fun of. The same happened to my children and grandchildren. When I tell persons about it, they usually don't believe that we were born with it, UNTIL I show them a whole album full of my relatives who have the white streak in their hair and THEN they are amazed. The photo included with this post, is my cousin, with his wife and oldest son. My cousin's mother was my Dad's sister, who also had the white streak in her hair. I will try to post more photos of other members of my family from time to time.
