[QUOTE="donna723, post: 354351, member: 1883"] Janet, that's so cool! Are all the people with that same last name related to each other somehow, even if way, way back? It must be fascinating to find relatives you didn't even know you had and finding out more about where you came from and your family history! And does that make you a Baroness ... even a little bit? We have a very distant relative (we have great-grandparents in common) who has put together a 178-page loose-leaf book on his research into my paternal grandmother's family. One of my cousins sent me a copy of the book as a gift a few years ago and I can't stop looking at it! I have never met the man that did the book, didn't even know he existed before, but my cousin has corresponded with him and she emailed me a picture of him that he sent her. It was almost creepy! My dad was the oldest of four brothers ... and this guy looks EXACTLY like them, except he came along a generation later! You could have put him in with my dad and his brothers and you wouldn't be able to pick out the one that wasn't one of the brothers. Neat stuff! Hope you have fun with it! [/QUOTE]
