...genealogy is in the Top 5 hobbies...

I received a phone call last weekend from a cousin I didn't know I had. It seems like he was surveying his family tree and I'm one of the branches. Stranger still, even though my family settled on east coast of Canada after leaving Ireland, I have a number of relatives within a half-hour drive, and a couple within ten miles. Before his phone call, I didn't know any of them existed. My cousin discovered all this from the Internet and started phoning for birth and death dates, marriages, and family history.

It makes interesting reading.

My The Commander wanted to trace his roots in Ireland. He has no information about his family whatsoever. After travelling around the Green Island for a few days, he picked a pretty spot and had a local snap a picture of us. Whenever he shows the family photo album, he now points out where we originated. He says it's not really fibbing because his grandparents were from Ireland, and that's where the picture was taken.

Cheers, PW.
