This is Celesta and Brianna.

Celesta Mary Mattice Samson was born 2 March 1902 and passed away 12 June 2009 at the age of 107 years. Celesta and I are 4th cousins. She was also the wife of mt 1st cousin 1 time removed. The Samson line intertwines in the genealogy in several places.

This was taken when the girls were at our house. They are really growing fast. Brianns is 3 yearsold now and Monica is 2 years old.

This photo is one I took when we met Dad's 3rd cousin in Scottsbluff a week or two ago. We talked about genealogy etc. and then went out to lunch. It was fun and I think we helped her with some of the information we had. She gave us some pictures so all in all it was a very productive meeting.

These photos were in the Star-Herald on Sunday. Raymond looks really neat in his costume.

THis was taken at Monica's birthday party. She is 2 years old now.
