     Neither my sister nor her children have authority to share my or my immediate family members' personal information, and, in fact, most of the data they submitted is incorrect. Rather than revise the inaccurate data, I have determined that deleting the information provided will be the wiser alternative.
     I have suggested that my sister, Michelle Makvandi, advise all of our siblings that she and/or her children have compromised their personal information and allow the siblings to contact you individually to request deletion of that information.
      I am also sending a copy of this email to my cousin, Edwin Oliver Sarratt III, so that he can determine the propriety of displaying the Social Security numbers of his parents and our aunt, Charlotte Jane Sarratt.

I have uncovered an old photo of Edwin O. Sarratt included with old photos of my family from Union, SC. I do not believe Edwin is a relative of mine but rather an "in-law".
He is perhaps a sibling of Clara Hoey Sarratt? (1887-?).
I have attached a copy of the photo. On the back it says:
"Colonel Edwin Olive Sarratt USoCar. Grad and West Point grad.4 yrs S.C. College later became USC."
"Dad" Sarratt. US Army and Retired to Texas"
I would be happy to send the original to you if you would like it.
