Meet the Historian's Family

I would like to introduce to you the four main branches of my family tree: the Hoods, the Nordstroms, the Eldridges and the Eppersons.

Each branch is represented in this photograph of my parents on their wedding day. From left to right are William Keir Hood, Karin Nordstrom Hood, my parents, Bennie Eldridge Epperson and Joseph Bolen Epperson.
 
Both sides of my family knew each other for decades - they lived in the same town and attended the same church. However, this wedding photo is the only one I know of that has all four of my grandparents in it.  Go figure...
