Patricia Higgins' success story

Patricia Report 8 Nov 2005 21:42

I entered my father's name and within a few weeks I was contacted by a lady in Adelaide, Australia who thought we were related. After comparing our father's birth certificates we were indeed cousins, our father having been brother's. I am 72 and my new cousin Mary Hamblin is 67 - so now I not only have her in my family but she has 3 brothers, and she has found me and my 3 siblings. None of us had any clue that we existed. What a boon genesreunited is - keep up the good work. Thank You, Patricia Higgins.
