The UFO Family Brand

Description:
This is a bit of a personal post from a member of our UFO Team. On his son's first birthday, he got a tattoo on his leg. His son is named after his great-great-grandfather, William Richard. The brand is a "Bar Q" brand, currently registered in a mid-western state by living family members.

History:
Our UFO Team member neglected to ask how long the brand has been registered and in use, but he believes it to date back to his grandfather.

FAQs:
  1. Yes, it hurt, a lot.
  2. No, the shaved area will not stay shaved in an effort to "better display the tattoo."
  3. It's a brand, as in a cattle brand, not a cereal or shoe brand.

References:
- Numerous facts were gathered from the private Richard Family Estate collection. These facts span numerous sources of information and contain genealogical data, photos, and newspaper articles.
