Gentrifying the past

Reuben Thomas and Emily (center front) on their 5oth Anniversary

Reuben Thomas and Emily came to Australia on the 10 pound ticket deal. My uncle told me that one day without thinking what it might mean. He has those tickets stashed away somewhere. After he found out that the history that I was putting together of our family didn't match the history he had been told, the history he loved, he decided I wasn't allowed to see them. Nor was I allowed to look at the family bible.
