Until 6 months ago, I didn't even know my grandparent's parent's names.......By accident I ran across my grandmother's REAL name and from there it's gone wild. Why my mother kept everything secret from me, I'll never know.
Do you have any contact with a family member that might know any of the family history?
No -- my brother and I are the last of that line. I have a LOT of the history now...she included a book with certificates....and the genealogy history is on Ancestry.com The notes with these items is enough for me!!!! I STILL am as excited as a kid on Christmas morning.
