98-year-old Kentucky woman with over 230 great-great-grandchildren meets her great-great-great-grandchild for the first time in amazing photo with 6 generations in it

An incredibly heartwarming photo showing six generations of women from the same family has gone viral recently as it captured the attention of a large number of people.

At the top end of the age scale is 99-year-old MaeDell Taylor Hawkins who is holding her seven-month-old great-great-great-granddaughter Zhavia Whitaker in her arms while the rest of the women, including MaeDell’s daughter, Frances Snow, 77, granddaughter Gracie Snow Howell, great-granddaughter Jacqueline Ledford, 29, and great-great-granddaughter Jaisline Wilson, 19, are posing behind them. Today, MaeDell has more than 620 grandchildren from her own daughters and their children’s children.

“I know it’s rare for six generations … it’s even rarer for all of them to be the same gender,” MaeDell’s granddaughter Howell, 58, told Good Morning America. “We’re all girls — girl power, as well.”

When they snapped the photo and shared it on the social media, none of them knew it would attract that much attention.

“We just kind of planned a day, and we just all met and grandma knew we were coming,” Howell, who now lives in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, said.

MaeDell got married back in 1940 when she was just 16 years old. Her husband was 50-year-old rail worker Bill Taylor who at the time had 10 children and needed someone to take care of them while he was at work. MaeDell took the role of a mother and went on to have 13 children on her own.

The family lived a very simple life as they lacked electricity, running water, and a stove, among the rest.

Getting married young was normal back in the day. Speaking of it, Howell said, “Now we don’t. We have children later in our life, so families are not that big. Having six generations is very, very rare to start with.”

The Kentucky matriarch now boasts a whopping 623 descendants, according to a family chart shared by her daughter-in-law, Janice Taylor. They include 106 grandchildren, 222 great-grandchildren, 234 great-great-grandchildren and 37 great-great-great-grandchildren.

“If everything goes well, the baby’s doing well, Grandma’s doing well – we’re all going to meet back in June and get another picture,” the family shared.

I Overheard My Husband Telling Our 4-Year-Old to Keep a Secret

Paige, a dedicated career woman, came home from a business trip to overhear her husband, Victor, and their four-year-old son, Mason, discussing a secret. Victor told Mason not to share what he’d seen with Paige, as it would “make her sad.” This unnerved Paige, but she brushed it off, assuming it was something minor.

After more business travel, Paige noticed a small but strange detail in a photo Victor sent — a pair of unfamiliar, high-end shoes in their living room. She shrugged it off at first, but doubt crept in. When she returned home, she caught Victor in bed with another woman, and Mason’s earlier words, “Mommy, don’t go in there; you’ll be sad,” now made devastating sense.

Victor tried to blame Paige’s busy career for his infidelity, arguing he needed “human contact.” Heartbroken and realizing the weight her son had carried in keeping this secret, Paige confronted her marriage’s painful reality. Supported by her family, she asked Victor to leave, choosing to divorce and rebuild her life for her and Mason.

Through it all, Paige resolved to prioritize her own and her son’s well-being, even amid the pain of betrayal.
