Most of the work was actually done by a 2nd cousin, once removed, whatever that means, so I had a great start.<BR/><BR/>Love the real old photos. I wonder why people looked so different back then...probably because there was fast food to fill them out like we are today!fuzzbert_1999@yahoo.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08523386203834736598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-468891502132816575.post-16650391492773412712007-09-05T16:43:00.000-04:002007-09-05T16:43:00.000-04:00Well if you get to reading my stuff as I post it.....Well if you get to reading my stuff as I post it...first cousins getting hitched(including my great-grandparents, must be why I am nuts!), Great-Great Uncles involved in bar fight murder...Civil War heros and deserters....out of wedlock cousins(from the 1800s no less)...<BR/><BR/>Like I said, some of this stuff puts today's soaps to shame.<BR/><BR/>patPRHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429172501061105316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-468891502132816575.post-15549368211204302722007-09-05T14:56:00.000-04:002007-09-05T14:56:00.000-04:00Yep.

And part of the fun is trying to find the closet those bones are buried in.<BR/><BR/>Most of the families of old hid what they were ashamed of and unless a kid was old enough to remeber was never told about the Uncle who wuz hung for being a horse thief or that another Uncle was a woods colt and that a favorite aunt's husband wasn't really killed in the war..she never had one..<BR/><BR/>My family legend allows my original Texas grandpa went off to California in 1949 to discover gold. They heard he had made his strike and was coming back to Texas but disappeared.<BR/><BR/>Back in the 1960's I was stationed with a guy with the same last name as mine..and unusal one and most with it are cousins of some degree. But this dude was from Pa and I knew I didn't have any cousins from PA..but he did have the same family legend except his grandpa found the gold and came home..go figure..GUYKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02365709988592687239noreply@blogger.com
