So for right now I've spent time responding to them rather than looking up the others. I'm trying to finish a project for my older sister - a book of pictures and info about our oldest sister who passed away years ago. We want to give it to her children who really don't have many memories about their Mom.

And I certainly don't need more relatives! I've got plenty, most of which I don't like very much, LOL.

I did look at some of the trees to see who the common ancestors were. Unfortunately none of them have more information than I already do.
