I can also imagine it might be a bit overwhelming too.

I have been doing research for a while now, and it can be really amazing the things you find out about one's 'roots' Most people seem to take stories like yours good-natured and enjoy hearing the stories. There are some doozies out there! I am glad you ahve gotten in touch with some of your 'long-lost.' Very fun. And, I love the picture. Nana was quite lovely!

I decided, after living for 50 years and not knowing a whole lot about the people I come from, to start investigating my family's lineage. So many surprises! The best one so far is that I live in a place that 153 years earlier, my g-g-grandfather walked as an Early Oregon Pioneer. He was 21, he came alone. I walk the ground now and imagine there is no time and space between him and me, and I do feel a real connection. I had no idea he had come this way until my research. <br>What a hard life for your Nana, and a hard life for all women then, to ever be in a position to be 'put out on the street'. How frightened and alone she must have felt, and helpless to do much about it. <br>She was beautiful! What a great photo to have of her.
