NEW FIRST COUSIN TWICE REMOVED

Serena Penelope, born Houston Texas, 6th August 2015

Congratulations to her parents, my first cousin once removed Jonathan, and his wife Imam. Congratulations also to her grandmother, my cousin Penny,

Serena is, I believe, the 37th descendent, including step and foster children, of my grandfather Chief Engine Room Artificer Emmanuel Leonard and my similarly beautiful grandmother Ethel Mary.

Their grandfather Thomas Leonard was a first mate in the Merchant Navy and captained a sailing barque to Sierra Leone.
