I'm doing cartwheels!!!

Post by frankattleborough »

Not really, but mentally I am.

After many years of searching and lately banging my head against a brick wall of Canadian beurocracy, by other means I have found a Cousin who I knew was in Canada. Not only that, at the same time I found another one who lives in the States!

We are all so pleased that we have found each other and are now exchanging details of family members. :dance: :dance: :dance: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Whew!!

Would love to see the cartwheels, how many can you do at a time?

In a way Welcome is the right place Frank, as it is welcoming a 'new' family member.

So glad for you. Its great to find more of ones family and especially on the same bit of ground, if further away.

Very excited for you! I have recently met a cousin from California who found me through one of those ancestry sites (don't want to give free advertising plus its a really expensive site) and Facebook. My Great grandfather was from Greece. She is the Great granddaughter of his sister. She has SO much information. A copy of his draft card his naturalization papers..census items etc. It was great. Plus we had some pictures that we did not know who was in them and turns out they are of my great grandfathers sister's family her kids and their children etc! It was neat to find some answers as I am sure it will be for you frank!!
