It seems a number of people knew [or surmised] that the man and woman were in fact half-brother and sister, through a clandestine relationship. [Doesn't that sound dramtic?] When the young couple were attracted to each other and planned to marry no one came forth to say that they shouldn't. My mother had several of the resulting offsrping in school and declared privately that they "weren't bright--how could they be?"Morning's Minionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912356455981434029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-52210498899219234422009-11-11T10:44:20.987-08:002009-11-11T10:44:20.987-08:00What a convoluted family story BB!
