And now I apparently am partly responsible for hooking up two unrelated (common norwegian name) in marriage!

I've got genuine not heresay links to Waldos (as in Emerson) and Brontes. Very, very, very distant cousins up the line. Still ain't a writer.

Yay!

Ancestry.com showed me that none of the thousands of descendants of Morris Tucker, who was first mentioned in 1659 as a householder in Salisbury, Mass., knows where the hell he came from. Some people like to think he came by way of Bermuda, but they just want to be related to Gov. Tucker. As a cousin once said, "I can get him back to the water, but I can't get him on that damned boat."

Woe to the fucking wicked.

If we ever manage to develop time-travel technology, it's going to be the geneologists who have the most fun with it.

Heh. A lot of the innovations in American computer science are offshoots of Tech Model Railroad Club at MIT. Train people have science brains!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I feel it is less creepy to email someone saying "I came across this info on Ancestry.com" rather than "I stalked you n the internet". Ancestry does not give first names, but their last name is Darling, which is super easy to trace. Just that Mrs Darling (related to my grandfather) actually was estranged from Mr. Darling and was living with some (according to my mom) really hot guy in the late 1950's.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If someone found me on ancestry.com I'd feel myself pretty stalked on the internet, really. And I'd be furious at whoever put my information out there. At least with Intelius it's my own fucking fault.

You're related to Wendy?

I do have a cousin Wendy, but she is not a Darling!

I do love that I have Darlings in my family. I am just waiting for the appearance of Jim, Dear.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
