Progress!

So, after my father's sister died about three years ago, my sister-in-law, known to always do the right thing, looked up my cousin's addresses in the internet and had inadvertantly tripped over a family tree.  She sent me the link and I took a look at it.  To my amazement, it was indeed a family tree of OUR family, only thing was, I wasn't on it!  Heh?  What to do?  Research who put the tree together, find him and make contact.  That is exactly what I did.

I had always thought that my father's mother had only one sister.  What I didn't know was that there were 5 brothers and a half-sister!  This family was huge!  We had met up in New York on one of my trips home, and he had put me into contact with a couple more cousins, two of whom I met earlier this year.
