I have only been using the site for a few weeks and thanks to all who helped, I found a cousin of my husband, Christine living in England not too far from my husband's sister also named Christine.
We have just come back from visiting my sister in law and we were all able to meet up with this cousin we knew nothing about. We had a lovely day exchanging stories and photos, and it turned out she never even knew her grandad had a younger brother who was my husband's dad. There was nearly 20 years of age difference in their ages and her grandad was off to war before his youngest brother was born, then he went to London to live., and they never even met. So a wonderful ending to a sad story but now we are in touch it is great. So a VERY BIG THANKS to all on the site who helped make this possible.
