It's a fluke, probably was released from the Rootsweb filter by accident. Geeezzzzz -- it attached to my response and I felt so good when I was pretty sure I found the grandmother. BTW, for those here, I only used the first name in the database search and then narrowed it further by restricting the year of death to five years before and five years after. Shannon and I are pretty sure it is the grandmother remarried.
