His father’s family were generational orphans, with even the family surname not even being their “actual” name. His great grandfather was orphaned and indentured at a young age in 1794, then his father was orphaned during the Civil War at the age of 6 when his father died at Jacksonville in 1863.
My 2x great grandfather died in the 60s, alone, in a TB sanitarium hundreds of miles away from his family. His grandchildren, including my grandmother, were orphaned around the same time.
