Other people’s relatives

It’s inevitable that we amass countless numbers of “unrelateds” in our tireless efforts to find the ones that belong to us. Every obituary copy that I have in my files seems to have at least one or two stragglers next to “mine” and there’s always that tombstone hanging out behind my relatives that is just screaming “HEY LOOK AT ME! I’M BACK HERE AND I BELONG TO SOMEONE TOO!” And lets not think about city directories… I mean there are dozens of names staring up at me practically sneering “Yeah, you think you’re better than me just cause we aren’t related?” So I’ve decided to give back to all of these poor unclaimeds and am now announcing a new weekly series that you will find only here (or on the blogs of the people who thought it up before me, but don’t steal my thunder just yet!).. a true geneacentric.com ex-clues-ive I like to call OTHER PEOPLE’S RELATIVES. Don’t get me wrong though cause I’m not selfish.. you’re all invited to do the same on your blogs. So with only slight further ado, I beg that you return Friday for the first installment.
