- Starting point for any genealogist: three generations
The photo was taken in August 1969 when I received an MA from the University of Oklahoma. Pictured are, left to right, Mansel Grant Armstrong (1897-1977), Edward Arthur Alvis (1926-2003), Evelynne (Armstrong) Alvis (born 1926), Kathy (Alvis) Patterson (born 1947), Malcolm Howie Patterson (born 1941), George Orville Alvis (1901-1983); seated, Ethel (Light) Armstrong (1900-1991) and Mary (Pedigo) Alvis (1905-1982).
Welcome to the Geneabloggers family. Hope you find the association fruitful; I sure do. I have found it most stimulating, especially some of the Daily Themes.
May you keep sharing your ancestor stories!

My husband has a similar family portrait. Same era and also taken in the family library!
