Happy Siblings Day


Well, as usual, I'm a day late and dollar short in regards to Sibling day. I've tried to make up for it in quantity. You will probably notice we were abused children... forced to stare into to the sun time and time again as our father took our pictures. It's probably the reason I have the early onset of cataracts. Few people were aware I had a little sister, Betsey Wetsey Algood that is shown in one of the pictures. Betsey and I were very close. She was tragically lost at an early age in a terrible sandbox accident. This is the only known picture of her and my father seldom spoke her name. I believe he never accepted the fact that she was actually his child. It was rumored her father was actually Ben Franklin, but since the body has been lost we cannot retrieve any DNA and we will never know for certain. I still miss her. Happy siblings day, Betsey, where ever you are.
