Guess what?? Because of this thread I found my great-great-great grandparents AND it's possible that we are related to the "Lost Colony of Roanoke"!

When I typed the names in this thread I decided to look on the 'net too. I typed in my great great grandfather's name and found someone else had posted it a couple of years ago. I emailed the lady and she emailed me back some info.

Wow....is BYC magic?
