Mr. and Mrs. Thomas F. Brady – my GRAND-PARENTS

Aug 31st Mr. and Mrs. Thomas F. Brady – my GRAND-PARENTS

A “PICTURE” is worth a thousand words – – and… am I … ever so glad… that these PHOTOS were preserved over all of these years – – and of all the many photos that may have been taken and even some of the older brothers in the BRADY FAMILY – – may have been collected and kept – – but that which I am most grateful for… is having these of my GRAND-PARENTS – – and these young “Grand-Parents” to be…were saved by my MOTHER- to-be and she was the last and the thirtieth child in the BRADY FAMILY!

I can not tell the age of my GRAND-PARENTS in the above PHOTOS – – but they do look fairly young and in very good health for two immigrants coming on different ships and in different years… to AMERICA. On the left is ANNE E. Smart BRADY – – my GRAND-MOTHER to be – – and she did have thirteen children – – and the last of her children was to be “my MOTHER, Marie.”
