    2. Hi, Doing genealogy I "found" a first cousin once removed and he had information about our ggrandparents and a gaunt. He also told me about my guncle who murdered his daughter in a drunken rage. He was 67 at the time and was sent away and died the next year. I had heard he killed someone in a fight, but you see how stories come down. I got the newspaper reports about his arrest. My cousin was also able to tell me about his aunt, who was my mother's cousin. She is still alive and at that time was 98. I was so excited and thought she would be a great source of information. However, when he approached her she couldn't understand why we wanted to go into all that stuff. It is really a shame, because I know why she doesn't want to go into "that stuff" but I would love to hear stories about my aunts, uncles and other cousins. At the present time she is my great brick wall and she doesn't even want to meet me although she remembers my mother. Rita
