October Celebrations among My Relatives and Ancestors

October 9 is the star this month.  There are four birthdays and a wedding anniversary that day.  My sister, Marsha; our great-great-grandfather, Dixon Bartley;  Dixon's grand-daughter and our great-aunt, Brendice (Gerner) Davis; and William Henry Kropp, a great-great-uncle by marriage, all share birthdays that day.  And my brother, Bob, and his first wife, Janet (Patton), share their wedding anniversary with the birthdays.  Happy Days!

There are four other dates (the 2nd, 7th, 22nd, and 27th) with multiple events, too.  A busy month.

I love the message on this card:
  May this year bring thee many happy days,
  Pass'd in the light of sweet affection's ray.
