And the Winner is 'Uncle Mac'

So this past weekend we drove up to Hornbeck, Louisiana for the Graham (my Fraternal Grandmothers side) Family reunion. What you don't know where Hornbeck is...don't worry or GPS had a hard time finding it also. While at the reunion someone made the comment that the girls get their red hair from Uncle Mac. I asked the question "who is Uncle Mac?" to which I got some very odd looks..."why that is your grandfather, Denise" .."my grandfather's name is Cubby not Mac...oh wait...McFerrin. Is that why you call him Uncle Mac?" ding ding ding. Well turns out he was a ginger also but we never knew it because he and my grandmother divorces when my father was young (she does not talk about him) and he passed away before any of us were born. The only pictures of him that we have are black and whites so there was no way to tell. But mystery solved. Guess the red hair did not come from the mail man after all.
