Excuse me for my late response. That is wonderful how you were informed about your family history. I heard some from my family, especially my meternal grandmother. I discovered over info on the ancestry sites, newspapers.com, and find a grave. My maternal side is SC and I think NC. Mg paternal side is VA and NC. My family is scattered out, especially on the east coast. I have a few family in the Midwest/West. I have to get back into my ancestry research. I won’t be able to do what I want until I actually travel.Also, I am going to ask my great aunt questions about our family. She is in her 80’s and in her right mind. Her sister, my great grandmother passed away months ago at age 90. So she is the only child left between just her sister. She does have kids and grandkids, but her sister was like her best friend.Now I know there are Black people who live long ages. A Black woman I grew up knowing in church lived to 104 years. She just passed away weeks ago. I have a grandmother (not biological) who is 98 years old and still kicking. I pray that I live that long. It’s a lot of young folks dying. It’s not meant to be that way. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
