Well done Goldie.

My father burnt all our family portrait oil paintings so I know where they went to!

Snap Rena!
The only photo of my grandfather was burnt by my aunt, (his daughter).
I don't know what he looked like - nothing else survives.
All his children are quite different, so it's hard to say which bits of him, if any, were passed on.
I wish I'd paid more attention at the age of 8 when I did see it briefly!  :)
