I love hearing about those 'rootsweb moments"!!! I just found my mom's first cousin about a week ago. She was posting on a message board but using a spelling for one of our surnames that I had never tried. I have never been able to contact her side of the family because of a stupid family "feud" that happened before I was even born. The two of us have been able to get past the stupid feud and finally share information. Thanks for sharing about your moment.
