    3. Dear Tony, I read your email and thought it was very interesting about finding your information in Waukesha. I am originally from that part of the US and many of my ancestors are buried there. My problems tracing my ancestry were many. I didn't know where my father was born, where my parents were married, but did have a bit of information about my paternal grandfather being born in a town in the State of Indiana. I ran an ad in the personals in that city and before you knew it, I received a letter from a retired railroad man there, who likes to use the internet to research various ancestories. It wasn't long before he was sending me numerous information about my ancestors, including photos of the tombstones of my GGrandfather and Grandmother, and records of my paternal side of the family going all the way back to 1710, in Northern Ireland. In September of this year, my wife and I are taking a trip to Northern Ireland and Scotland because I also want to see the country where my ancestors came from originally. I am 69 years old and prior to receiving this information this past year, I didn't know that I had any Irish or Scotch/Irish blood in me. The Head of Clan Henderson is our Chieftain, Alistar D. Henderson Younger of Fordell, 125 Annie Street, Torwood. Queensland 4066, Australia. To sum it all up, you were right about never giving up in searching. You never know where you might find valuable information. Respectfully yours, Paul G. Henderson Spokane, Washington
