My mother, Petrea Gillespie is on the far left, her grandmother Eva Petrea Giles is seated behind and her great-grandmother Petrea Sorensen is sitting in the chair. The man is my grandfather, Robert Gillespie. Taken 1948.
I love this picture of my great-grandmother, Eva Petrea in her kitchen.

I love this!! I have never seen these pictures-priceless. Little Petrea is named after some very impressive women. I can't believe how much Grandpa Gillespie looks like Sean.
Thanks for the history of name, Petrea. What a lucky little girl!
So glad you're back. I've missed your posts. Petrea number 4 is beautiful!
What a heritage! I'm so happy for little Petrea--and for all of you. Frame that kitchen picture.
Great pictures!
love the pink outfit that petrea junior is wearing :)
what a great heritage of Petreas! I can't wait to meet the youngest one
I love when family names are carried on. Baby Petrea is beautiful! What a doll.
What gems! Pictures are so vital to connect the generations, even if they can be challenging to take. Enjoy your visit with the fam.
What a legacy! I love the picture of mom! What do you call baby P? Patrea, trea, patty? :) Can't wait to see her in person!
This is perfect! What a sweet little baby you have, Erin. And I love the name legacy.
Where did you find those two top pictures? I don't think I've ever seen them before. What a lovely idea to post the name history. Baby Petrea is gorgeous; Mom should be so flattered.
Mom, do you realize you have 4 grandchildren named for you: Soren PETER, Lily ANN, April PETREA, and PETREA Stanley. We must all really like you a lot!

That's really sweet.
