I’ve had to tackle some very difficult family history problems. Fortunately, after years of work, progress has been made.

Some ancestors want to be found… others want to hide.

Finding cousins via DNA tests was very helpful to me, but without spending time doing traditional genealogy also the DNA tests would not have been so helpful.

Yep. If not for finding my third great grandmother’s death record, I wouldn’t know who her parents were and with the parents listed, I was able to find a cousin who has them. His second great grandfather was third great grandmother’s brother and he stayed in Ireland unlike thrid great grandmother. Interestingly enough, both lived long lives and died within a year of each other in the early 1900’s after having lived to be in their late 80’s.
