A video of how two people falling in love can create a village of more than 60 relatives has gone viral. Burton and Edna Knight, from Upton, Kentucky, started dating when they were young and have been married for 71 years. Today, Burton, 90, and Edna, 91, have four daughters, 13 grandkids and 29 great grandkids – plus spouses – making up a family unit of 61 members. But ahead of Labor Day weekend, when all the family would be gathered in one place, granddaughter Taylor Vance, 21, and her cousin, Alycia, started brainstorming ideas to capture their family in one shot. First, Burton and Edna are seated in the frame, before they’re joined by their four daughters, and then their four husbands. Then, the four couples are joined by Burton and Edna’s 13 grandkids – who then wave in their partners – before a swell of grandkids flood the frame.
