Talk about your doppelgangers: Greta Thunberg seemingly has one from 120 years ago




No, she's obviously not a "time-traveler", twitter silliness aside, but she surely had a seeming doppelgänger from the Gold Rush days... The photo was unearthed from archives at the University of Washington dating to 1898. Anyone wonder if your seeming "twin" might show up in photos one day?

I thought it was me. It was my face feature by feature...she even had the mole on her lower. jaw on the left side as I did (it was removed some years ago as pre-cancerous)... It was the size of a dime exactly like mine. She was short as I am (probably average back then for a woman) with a curvy figure. I have to diet strenuously to keep my weight down.

My Great-Grandmother died young and her three girls were sent to an orphanage as their Father was deemed unfit to raise them. The story was he was Native American but after doing a genetic test that is not true so since all are dead, I will never know what happened. My Grandmother was bitter and rarely discussed it. She was not overly fond of men that is for sure.
