Dear MM, I promise never to make such a blanket statement about Armstrongs. And I bet the "Armstrong funny bone" is not feeling so funny after the draining experience you just had. Oh, and happy birthday to your elbow, too. Tom Marilynn Masten wrote: > Never make the blanket statement that all Armstrongs are from one family. I wanted very badly to be related to Robyn but my Armstrongs DNA don't match the others and they came from Clones, Ireland Now I am always happy to find I have another dose of Irish blood in me, and I've got lots about the Richard Armstrong family of Westchester and points north (and south) so if anyone wants some NY State genealogy, contact me. > > However, the Armstrong funny bone extends to all Armstrongs so whoever it was that suggested that may offer closer ties than DNA results, may be on the right track. Moose track, Peacock track, whatever track we happen to be on at the moment. > > Just got my elbow drained. Now I have heard of a person with a rendency toward a bent elbow (my great-grandfather, who was sober sometimes) but I'll bet most of you have not had your elbow drained. First a big needle, then a smaller, but sharper one. Not a pleasant birthday present. > Marilynn > IBSSG >
