100 Year rule--what's your grandma's and great grandma's names?

[mariab]

Neither of my grandmothers were American born but, their names are Bruna and Maria. My husbands grandmothers are Julia and Patricia

[malaria]

My grandmothers are Maurilia Nilsa and Gayle.

My great grandmothers were Evelyn and Janet.

I never knew my other great grandmother, and one I just always called Gramma Murray so I'm not sure of her name.

This is a cool idea!

My maternal grandma: Violet
My paternal grandma: Eleanor

Also, my maternal step-great-grandma: Edith, who went by Eden
