[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 158392"] I just got off the phone with my grandmother. My great-grandfather did not kill the children. He killed his wife, then himself. There were 4 children - my grandfather was the youngest - who were all adopted separately. My grandfather was 2 or younger when it happened and he was with 4 families before being adopted at around 4. The adoptive family never even knew his correct birthday - just that it was in April. Found out more stuff about my grandfather - that he was abusive, etc. My father was abusive. Both of them alcoholics and unable/unwilling to be a parent, spouse, whatever. But, I have the names of my great-grandparents, know what county they lived in and approximate year of death. I'm going to start digging. Since my grandfather was the youngest and he was born in 1915 or 1916, I doubt his siblings are still alive. It would be nice to have some kind of information because of my health issues which I just don't share with anyone else in my family....besides the mental health aspect. [/QUOTE]
