I have met four new cousins at our local library. Not the planned meetings, but by going to the library on the spur of the moment. These new cousins have come in from out-of-state. At our local library there is a book to sign for researchers. I always check the names that have been signed ahead of me. I ask the librarian in charge if that person is still there. If that person is still there I walk over to them and ask who they are researching. One day, I was at home and one of the librarians calls me on the phone. (It is a good thing I was not on the internet.) She knew what surnames I was researching. She told me there was a gentleman from South Dakota in town looking for his 2nd great-grandfather. I talked with him briefly, went to the library and gave him all the info he ever imagined. He has been back twice to Indiana to visit. I went to the library on the spur of the moment this spring and met a new Sisson cousin from Michigan. We have been exchanging information back and forth on the internet. This meeting of cousins by accident has happened to my husband also. I do not believe this is a coincidence. Destiny (maybe the ancestors up there giving us help, since they did not leave good records). Let the librarians at the libraries you frequent know the surnames you are researching, leave an outline descendancy chart with names & dates in the family files. Post your queries and surnames on all the sites related to that surname. You never know when someone will find you query and contact you. Judy Waggoner Green Grant Co., Indiana
