I love unique things – household décor items you won’t find anywhere else, unusual jewelry, one-of-a- kind picture frames, etc. So it only makes sense that ancestors with a distinctive look particularly pique my interest. On a recent expedition through my photo collection, I found a few of my kin that must have shared my penchant for distinction.
I love Albert Schultz’s big brush mustache…
And the hairdo on this unknown ancestor…
And Simon Ratcliff’s awesome sideburns…
And Marx Seemann’s big wave of hair…
Mabel Dickey’s little top-piece is particularly neat… and not easy to do, I'm guessing.
But my favorite of all of them, is Abial Adams.
This is the most distinctive beard I have ever seen. Kudos to Abial for not looking like every other man with a beard!
