My mother, aged 5, immigrated to Australia with her family in 1911. Recently I realised I knew nothing of her family in England so I joined Genes Reunited. First contact, from the site, came from one of my Gran's brothers decendants. Then another contact from Grans sisters decendant. Eventually the site ushered almost ALL my mothers cousins families. Most living in the Greater Manchester area and not realising they all had genetic links. One cousin did not even know her Gran and Grandfathers names. |
