Monica........I finally came across the post you had both here and at Ancestry.! (thanks) Boy, I just can't remember where I have seen things or who said them all the time, but I did have a very faint memory swirling around the back of my brain that it had been discussed.! Now I can't find my cousin Rita's (or her sister Margaret's) phone #'s to see if they ever sent for Vera's DC. I think both may have retired and or moved. Rita (Mostek McClean) lived in Omaha until last year! The name thing is just something we have to cope with. My aunt was Frances but called Fritz, my mom, Clara but called Ki, my uncle, Adolph but called Chey.....and half the neighbors had nicknames. I spent the last couple of hours or more reading through old newspapers online for Santa Barbara Co for the person I am researching for right now. I remember why I took a break from genealogy for a few years now. lol KathyB ____________________________________________________________ Groupon&#8482 Official Site 1 ridiculously huge coupon a day.
