GREAT-GREAT GRANDFATHER?


An early 20th century photograph titled "Big Man of MO, 630 lbs."

I saw this picture and thought, hmm, this fellow's face resembles mine.  Could we be related?  I never had any trousers like that, but I've felt 325 pounds-worth of his pain.  And that's gracious plenty, as they say in the South.  Just imagine!  He does look tall, though, besides being so radically rotund.

cheers, BC
