Breakthrough

Post by mjay »

Received a message form a lady on Facebook who recognised a photo of my nan (who passed away December last year) she hadn't seen nan or grandad since she was child.
It turns out her grandad was my grandads brother. Since the initial contact other members of her family have got in touch with different bits of info.
Had convinced myself as grandad never spoke of family that I was never going to crack that side of me tree, I now might just might find more on my Hunt family X
My Ancestors chose me to research our families :thumbup:

Logic merely enables one to be wrong with authority.

Intentional pun? :lol:
Hit a Brickwall? Have you lost all trace of someone? Do not despair, simply make a note they were abducted by aliens! Don't believe in aliens? No problem, just write them off as having disapeared in a time portal
