I never met my g-grandma, but the from pics I saw of her, and what I’ve been told by older relatives, I look just like her. I’m definitley on the stout side, and I have her moon face and high cheekbones and the silver stripe in my hair on the right hand side of my temple. The black hair and eyes didn’t make it to my generation. LOL Some of my aunts had black hair/eyes and the silver stripe.

Many in the family have an affinity for the land and growing things and creatures. Very creative and talented.

silver stripe in my hair on the right hand side of my temple.<<<

Dad’s sister Bess had the white stripe, and dark hair, can’t recall the side.

I was pure white by 30 years.

Yes on the gardens and crafts.

Yes on high cheekbones and esp.

Any Bailey’s in your family tree? I have the white streak on my right and was always told it was the Bailey white streak. My mother was Cherokee NC>Tenn then family split with some forced to OK and mother’s branch went to Missouri and hid thier Cherokee roots.

I had an Aunt with the dark hair and the white streak that only a professional dye job could cover up. My hair is more dishwater blond so the streak wasn’t obvious until it really whitened out in the past several years. My middle daughter is paranoid that she has it; she is 23 and when she lightens her hair the front right gets much lighter than the rest. I just laugh, it has never bothered me- just part of family history.
