    3. Hello, a quick "ouch", I went looking through rootsweb, to see of any direction to go on a relative, and found some of my research with my family stories that was told to me by my grandmother, mom and other relatives. And personal stories...... So I know they got it from my research I had shared with one relative and he thought he was doing a good thing to share. But they took it as their own.
