Yes, I certainly agree. My mother died in 1982 and my father in 1988 and I just started this "hobby" about 2 1/2 years ago and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't wish that "I had asked that question" of one of them. They were so "closed - mouthed" about family, and I still haven't figured out why. No bank robbers yet (well ....maybe one . but he was only a great uncle-in-law) or horse thieves, or, or, or .... so I still haven't figured it out and most likely, never will.
