Heir raising moment -spooky or what ?!?

[pharmaT]

I hadn't heard of the song for my older daughter. The conception date for my younger daughter is slightly out but could work (based on scientific calculations) my husband worked away from home at the time.

Yes that's spooky.
I discovered my grandparents married on Christmas Eve 1904, my son was born on Christmas Eve.
I also discovered one of my grandfathers was born on 17th April, my wedding anniversary!

I suppose statistically we shouldn't be surprised, as the larger your tree is, the more chance there must be of events happening on the same dates.

Spooky.
My gg.grandmother died in childbirth with my g.grandfather
His wife, my g grandmother also died in childbirth with my grandfather.
Both women (great grandfather's mother and his wife) died on exactly the same date and 27 years apart..
.3 December

My daughter was born on 3 December, exactly 100 yrs & 127yrs to the day, after my ancestral grandmothers deaths

Crikey anne_p that is spooky

Groom.......I agree but..........when it comes to direct line that is less likely & there are a lot of "spooky" coincidences on here in direct lines

One would have to agree with groom, it makes sense.

But anne_p's tale is sad and spooky , and as you so rightly say Annie,  there are some really uncanny tales on this thread

Some interesting stories of all sorts 

A little spooky as my mother didn’t really know her parents, being 6 yrs when her father died & 7 yrs when her mother died……..

My maternal g/parents married 26 Dec
My maternal g/mother died 1948
My mother died 26 Dec 1984 (yr digits in reverse of her mother’s death)

My paternal g g/father b 18 Jul
My paternal g g/mother b 1864
My paternal g g/mother died 18 Jul 1946 (hubby’s birthday & own birth yr in reverse)

My paternal g/mother was b 1882 & my daughter born 100 yrs later 1982
(The only g/parent I met as the rest were gone before I was born)

Just thought I would add another coincidence to this....

My maternal g/parents married 26 Dec
My maternal g/mother died 1948
My mother died 26 Dec 1984 (yr digits in reverse of her mother’s death)

My mother was cremated on the birth date of my daughter's father 31 Dec

After reading all these posts this last couple of weeks, I really believe there has to be more to this than just a coincidence.

I'm sure they watch over us and let us know they are around
