I just wanted to say that through GR i have managed to find my fathers cousin. I am 34 and my father is 75 and his cousin is 78. It is wonderful. I have never met him but we email eachother and i pass the messages to my father. We have found another side to our family that we thought we had lost forever. One of the great things that has come out of it is that my fathers cousin has been able to send me a photo of my grandfather who i had never seen before. The picture was from about 1919. My dad was so pleased to see the picture. Also a photo of my great grandparents which i would of never seen had it not been for finding my second cousin on here. Best of all is getting to know my second cousin who is a real sweetheart. Thankyou.
