Sue - I was certain some of my ancestors were dropped from the same source as yours and then one day a descendant of my grandfather's sister contacted me - just like Nancy - after a message had been on a board for about a year. The difference is, she knew very little about my grandfather and any of his other siblings or his parents, but knowing the name and family of his sister is a start - a lot more than I knew before! So don't give up. Congratulations, Nancy and thanks for sharing with us - the thrill of finding another cousin and learning something about your ancestors is soooo exciting...we're excited for you! Marilyn G. from So.Calif. ----- Original Message ----- From: Sue M My ancestors weren't hatched from eggs, they just dropped out of the sky and took on some sort of human form during the drop. They have no pasts.......I'm convinced of this. Sue* ----- Original Message ----- > Hi gen pals, This rhymes with "pen pals" and I just had to write and tell everyone my recent success story.
