My uncle Wongsodinedjo was bigger than my father was. He was also brown, curley hair and had a loud voice . Most of my brothers and sisters were afraid of him. He married to mbokde(English: aunt) Wongso(given name umknown). Shen was a nice women. I did not know much about her. What just I remembered, was, that someday she called me nicely and gave me some rice to eat. She had black teeth, because she liked "nginang",(cewing betel leaf, uncaria, chalk and areca-nut altogether). She, then die. I did not know the cause of her death.
Uncle Wongsodimedjo, then married to lik Kerto(given name unknown) and had one daughter Sukini.
When Andhi was just born in 1971, I asked lik Kerto to help us to feed him, since my wife and I were working, espicially in the morning. She was good in making "jamu" (Javanese herbal medicine), that might be able to make it to maintain my wife's health.
Sukini was also, for several months, in another time, I forgot, stayed with us and help us took care our children.
My father's little sister next to him was aunti Mangun(given name unknown). She merried to uncle(in law) Mangun(given name unknown), who had a golden voice, that I really liked it to hear. I did not know her story at all as well how many sons and daughters that she had.

.My father's little brother was uncle Ngadi(given name unknown). He married aunti Yam(old spelling Jam). I did not know him much. He was Yellow, wearing glasses, that's all. I never spoke to him, but still remember that he died. I did not know what causing him die either. Yet, it was a time that there was a pest breakout, that caused many of my relatives died, andbthat made me schock, sad and dismay(BSD City, April 4th, 2020)
