Oh goodness yes. I'm getting my great-grandfather's 15-31 once I have two people to take it out of the basement. My aunt has one of underdetermined lineage in her basement for me. Friends of the family have another "old black Singer" they would love for me to have (again, waiting on the digging). It's like I'm made out of magnets and they are just winging their way here.
