Hooray for Genes Reunited

I did some searches the other night, and lo and behold have just had a contact reply from someone whose grandfather was my grandfather's brother, and I had no information on this side of the family after the 1901 census.

Hi Margaret

Excellent news :D

Like you I have no information on any of my grandfather's siblings. I live in hope :wink:

It is great to make a find like that. Recently I too have tracked down Granny's sister's family in Canada and it gives you a great big buzz.
