First Girl In Over 100 Years
April 13, 2023 4:57 amMichigan parents Carolyn and Andrew Clark welcomed newborn Audrey over two weeks ago, on St. Patrick’s Day.
Her arrival marks not only a new chapter for the couple, but it turns out that Audrey is actually the first daughter to be born on Andrew’s side of the family since 1885, according to his family’s records.
Carolyn admitted she heard the jaw-dropping tale a decade ago when she started dating Andrew — and didn’t quite believe her ears. “I asked his parents to confirm that information, and they’re like, ‘Oh yeah, no, we haven’t had a girl in our direct line,’”.
She continued, “He’s had uncles and cousins that have had girls, but in his lineage, there has not been a girl.”
They had the family over in September for a party, where they bit into custom cookies to reveal the baby’s gender. Surprisingly, the filling was pink.
Audrey arrived weighing 6 pounds, 8 ounces.
