<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 253494, member: 23&quot;]It&#039;s a long story.&nbsp; I&#039;m an only child, but I had a brother.&nbsp; My mother&#039;s oldest brother had a child out of wedlock and the mother couldn&#039;t keep it (1939).&nbsp; My grandparents took him in.&nbsp; When my mother and father married in 1945, she adopted him to keep him in the family, so he&#039;s legally my brother, and biologically my cousin.&nbsp; He was raised by another aunt so he didn&#039;t live with us and he was ten years older than I.&nbsp; It does confuse people when I say I&#039;m an only, but then I mention nieces and nephews.&nbsp; There were no girly-girls in my family.&nbsp; They all worked in mills and shoe factories and they were tough broads.&nbsp; I ended up being fostered out for a good part of my childhood with little old ladies so I was able to develop some refinement. Some is the key word.&nbsp; I&#039;m still a bit rough around the edges.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
