When I posted my Father's genealogical web site 8 years ago, I added a page on Missing Persons. Over the years, visitors to that page have responded favorably and postively. One must have patience. Your description of discovery was great. I could sense your exitment as you crawled across the attic toward the framed pictures. Nice story.Bob Kramphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08326531951468411940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632952351438454750.post-22747137499840375512008-12-19T22:39:00.000-07:002008-12-19T22:39:00.000-07:00A few years ago, I connected with a distant cousin...A few years ago, I connected with a distant cousin who told me that she descended from the youngest brother of my gg grandfather. She told me that a few years before that the youngest brother's old house had been torn down and nobody had thought to save all the old family records he had "inherited" from various parts of the family. It made the distant cousin sick to recount the tale, and it made me just as ill. Your story of treasures lost and treasures retained, certainly hit home with me. I'm glad your very wise mother was quick witted enough to find the portraits of your ancestors before they too were destroyed. Here's hoping you and all the geneabloggers get their dearest wishes come true.TERRY SNYDERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07196125204227954864noreply@blogger.com
