I’ll tell you about my father’s side of the family. My father, Joseph Brown, is one of four brothers. The eldest is my Uncle Keith, and he married Elsie down in England, and they had two daughters, Ruth and Helen, so those are two of my cousins. My father is next, and my father married my mother Susan. I have a brother and his wife is called Diana, and they have a daughter, my niece Alison. My father’s next brother is my Uncle Arthur. When Arthur was young, he went off to India, where he married Kay, an Indian lady. They have two sons, Jeff and Alan. Then the youngest of my father’s brothers is my Uncle John, who lives in America. His wife is Kate, and they have two children as well, a son and a daughter, Stuart and Tina, so those are my other two cousins.
