a correction, and more discovery
It is wonderful to see our story here in Living City. Mikal and I realized late as the magazine was going to press that my (Anne's) generations to my ancestor, James LaFayette McWilliams, is missing a generation: the father of Mary McWilliams Gilbert and my grandfather, Robert Lee McWilliams, Sr., was Thomas Pete "Tom Pete" McWilliams. James LaFayette McWilliams is my great-great grandfather, and I am in the fifth generation since the enslaved child, George McWilliams, was freed from slavery.
Mikal and I have been delighted to make additional connections in our family histories. Our fathers were born in October of 1929, and our mothers were born in May of 1933.
When we write publicly of the deity of Father Abraham, we both tend to use the non-iconic spelling: G_d or G-d; in Mikal's community within universal Islam, the English spelling comes too close to the spelling of "dog", an offensive association between the two names. Reverence and respect in the presence of the Holy is meant to invite openness and peace among all people.
Thank you for sharing this amazing story of our connection with the readers of Living City.
