Hello!

| First cousins marriages...oh yeah... |
Hey!!! Those stories about us (my family) having gipsy blood
aren’t probably old wives tales after all! Since I got time, my family tree has
taken giants leaps since I started looking into it… A year has gone bye and a
lot of stories have been dismissed, others have been confirmed and lots of them
have been correctly placed into a historical time line…and now the gipsy thing
is clearing up!
I was looking left and right, consulting genealogy
documents, digging deep into places that very few of us venture into… when
suddenly, there it was; A lead! OMG!! My Big Fat American Gipsy Wedding came
streaming with information that has launched my investigation into the gipsy
world!! No I’m not plugging the show here, let me explain what I found out and
then you will also say: “things that make you go hmmm…”
Season finally last night and there was a scene where a
brother goes to the grave of her sister; and as tradition has it, like all
Romanichal gipsies, families are buried together (according to the narrator of the show)….. WTF?? My 2nd
great-grandmother, her brother, my
great-grandmother and her sister (the daughters of my 2nd
great-grandmother) are all buried together!!! This is a wow factor that I don’t
know how I’m going to prove or disprove it… I don’t think there is a database
with gipsy people… All I know is that I started snooping around with my contacts;
who knows my clan and I could literally start “My big fat family story”…because
they’re all fat and stuff… now the zarzamora song makes sense...
…….Olé…
Take care folks!
PS Spanish/Jewish/German/Gipsy...oh yeah, I'm pretty fcked up!
