The Uncanny Resemblance

When I first joined the forum, I first posted on the 3rd page of that '57 Plymouth buried in Tulsa (on the "News" category). Upon scrolling down on that page, I couldn't help but notice for what I thought was the younger picture of my grandmother in the name of Lizzie Maine. I swear, when she was younger, she looked almost like Lizzie Maine! Lizzie Maine, if you're reading this, I hope you take no offense. This is just my observation for "The Observation Bar".

On the left is my grandmother Celi, and on the right is Lizzie.

I think her face structure is a little different but there is a resemblance. I could be wrong since Lizzie is facing at an angle, while your grandmother is facing straight ahead.

Whoa. That is amazing!! Down to the eyebrows!
Have you any photos you can share of your Grandmother around Lizzie's age? Would love to see!

Good heavens! Are we long-lost cousins???

I showed your picture to my Mom an she almost fell off her chair! :eek: She also couldn't get over your uncanny resemblance. I wish I had a younger picture of her but unfortunately I don't. You'll flip out if you saw her in the late 60's! Looks exactly like you. She already passed away in 2003. We might be related, who knows? It's a small world. :)

The irony is that I have a picture of her mother taken in the early 1900s. BTW, the picture of her father is my avatar.

A very striking lady -- and she kind of looks like my own grandmother!

Your people didn't come from Nova Scotia, by any chance?

Simply amazing! Mine actually came from Spain.

I saw someone who looked so much like my mother that it startled me. It was late one night after I'd come home from a Halloween dance I'd dressed up as Carmen Miranda for. I looked in the mirror, and there she was!

Uncannily uncanny; can he be?

I've shown this one before, but I'm still amazed at the uncanny resemblance of these two visages.

I've been confused for the actor CHarlie Day from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Ironically it is filmed in all the areas of town I hang out and some friends call me charlie..
