This site is no longer functioning as of 2022.
I connected with my husband's second cousin by answering a genealogical query on a site like this. I also connected with a cousin of the daughter-in-law of a great aunt, which led me to uncover more roots and three second cousins I hadn't known about.
These experiences have made me such a believer in queries that I've posted some on every forum connected to a surname in my family tree and my husband's family tree.
My first query wasn't specific enough, as a kindly (and anonymous) correspondent pointed out. She suggested I mention dates and places and names of several family members, which I now do. Thank you!
