The cousin with mysterious access to obituaries… sent two more last night. This morning I started “from scratch” because I did not have Robert Peters—or his parents—in my database. After several hours, he was modestly well documented and not someone I can call “cousin.” My documentation may help another researcher. (“Paying it forward” because so many cousins helped me three decades ago.)

Same old complaint: I don’t get enough sleep. I go to bed at about ten and lay awake for hours. I’m always tired!! I have no incentive to work on downsizing projects. It’s a dark, cloudy, cold day and I’m sitting close to the electric space heater. I’d love to go back to bed and snuggle under the covers!! However, I’ll sit right here at the computer and start documenting the second obituary.

Half an hour later and the second obituary is documented. He was already in my database.

!2 noonand this is the way I see it less than one hour after the original publication of this blog message. The ancestry is displayed from the son of Evert Lee Brubaker. (The son is my fifth cousin.)
