I've put together a little montage thingy with me at the beginning going up my G. grandad. The theory works up to my grandad but HE doesn't look much like his dad. How far back does your family resemblance stretch? |

I just got a photo pf my GGranddad, from my 2nd cousin. He looks identical to my uncle, and a lot like my dad. I don't have any older photos yet, so I can't say if it goes further back. |

Afternoon Dan! I look like my Dad, he is similar looking to his Dad, but looks very much like his Dad (my great Grandfather) Does that make sense! lol. I don't have any older photos of that branch to see if 'the look' goes any further back |

I don't think I look anything like my parents, although personality wise I can see parts of both of them in me. |

I do have two scary pictures. One is of my Grandmothers cousin, the other is of my Grandfathers cousin. They are both aged about 3, and they look identical. They are not related in the slightest though (as far as I know!) |

My grandmother was showing me some family photos. There is one which I thought was her but is actually my great great grandmother - they're so alike. Lucia :-) |
