    3. Many, many thanks, Annie!! So many people put names together and call them a family -- when there is often no relationship at all. Please research a second site, or even a third -- do not rely on the first one. Apologies for not cleaning off the mess at the bottom -- if someone can tell me how to get the "slider" to behave and go with the copy, I would be most grateful!
