This website is amazing! Just when I thought I couldn't find anybody as incredible as my mum's second cousin who lives nearby and occassionally works in the small town where I live. I found two of my grandpa's cousins are still alive, through another second cousin of my mum! They lost touch and he hasn't seen the eldest whom he remembers well and got on well with since the 1950s. He has several photos of the family including their grandfather, who my grandpa doesn't have a photo of. Now all the happy memories, knowledge of the family history, photos and other items in the family can be shared. This is in my opinion the best family history website and way of finding lost relatives in the world!
