So you found a gold mine!!!! I had it happen the other way once. I posted a newspaper article on a little known relation to another board once and someone found me that had my 2gr-grandfather's civil war letters on a website which when told to a cousin I did know, she gave me 5 more of his civil war letters I didn't know she had, then the "new" cousin found another relative with pics of all his children. Now we can no longer call this man "the old man and the cow" as the only pic of him we had was him with his cow - now he has a history and personality (from the letters) to go along with the pic. It's amazing how one "tiny" seemingly insignificant post (well to me anyway) can turn up so much! Of course it is always going to be more interesting when it is your own relatives! Have a great day! and Have fun!!!!
