Five generations...in one Rigside family

THE family of Rigside great-grandmother Margaret Dale can truly be described as Five Star!

For Margaret (67), who has lived in Rigside all her days, enjoys the company of her 92-year-old mum Anne, daughter Karen (43), 20-year-old grand-daughter Jennifer and Jennifer’s one-month-old baby Jayden.

“Having five generations of the one family still alive is quite unusual,” said Margaret (67). “Our friends and family think it’s wonderful because it doesn’t happen very often.”
