An incredibly heartwarming photo showing six generations of women from the same family has gone viral recently as it captured the attention of a large number of people.
At the top end of the age scale is 99-year-old MaeDell Taylor Hawkins who is holding her seven-month-old great-great-great-granddaughter Zhavia Whitaker in her arms while the rest of the women, including MaeDell’s daughter, Frances Snow, 77, granddaughter Gracie Snow Howell, great-granddaughter Jacqueline Ledford, 29, and great-great-granddaughter Jaisline Wilson, 19, are posing behind them. Today, MaeDell has more than 620 grandchildren from her own daughters and their children’s children.
“I know it’s rare for six generations … it’s even rarer for all of them to be the same gender,” MaeDell’s granddaughter Howell, 58, told Good Morning America. “We’re all girls — girl power, as well.”
When they snapped the photo and shared it on the social media, none of them knew it would attract that much attention.
“We just kind of planned a day, and we just all met and grandma knew we were coming,” Howell, who now lives in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, said.
MaeDell got married back in 1940 when she was just 16 years old. Her husband was 50-year-old rail worker Bill Taylor who at the time had 10 children and needed someone to take care of them while he was at work. MaeDell took the role of a mother and went on to have 13 children on her own.

The family lived a very simple life as they lacked electricity, running water, and a stove, among the rest.
Getting married young was normal back in the day. Speaking of it, Howell said, “Now we don’t. We have children later in our life, so families are not that big. Having six generations is very, very rare to start with.”
The Kentucky matriarch now boasts a whopping 623 descendants, according to a family chart shared by her daughter-in-law, Janice Taylor. They include 106 grandchildren, 222 great-grandchildren, 234 great-great-grandchildren and 37 great-great-great-grandchildren.
“If everything goes well, the baby’s doing well, Grandma’s doing well – we’re all going to meet back in June and get another picture,” the family shared.
Halle Berry & Gabriel Aubry’s Daughter, 16, Towers over Mom — Fans Divided over Their New Pics
Nahla Ariela Aubry, the daughter of Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry, is sixteen years old. Her birthdate on March 16, 2008, meant that she would always be in the public eye due to the fame of her parents. Nahla has developed over the years while being closely observed by both her parents and her fans.
Online comments to pictures of Nahla looming over her mother have been divided lately. While some talked on her choices in clothing, others concentrated on her development and metamorphosis. Nahla’s development from a curly-haired toddler to a tall teenager has been extensively captured in pictures and public appearances.
Nahla enchanted the audience as a toddler with her kind disposition and strong relationship with her parents. She started to show signs of her changing personality and style by the time she was five years old.
When Berry accused Aubry of whitening and straightening their daughter’s naturally curly hair in an effort to change her appearance, Nahla found herself embroiled in a major scandal in 2013. This was a challenging time that brought the dynamics of the family to light.
By 2020, Nahla had grown significantly in stature and maturity. She had changed into a composed, self-assured young lady at fifteen, frequently appearing to be taller than her mother. Berry posted pictures of Nahla on her 15th birthday, highlighting her development and maturity. Berry wrote in the caption of a photo, “My mini me (but not so mini anymore).” Nahla’s development over the years, highlighted by her public appearances and treasured family times, demonstrates her parents’ unwavering love and support.
