Long lost rellies
I took mum to see someone who she has traced in our family tree. They are a bit distant, our great, great, great grandfathers were either the same or brothers. I'm not sure. We went to Draycote Water Park, somewhere equi-distant as he is in Northampton. He is in his late 30s and has just had a baby boy (3months old), we met up with him, his wife and his new baby. It was lovely to meet him. Strange though as we are in fact strangers but we met for coffee and a walk. Richard didn't come, opting to got to the tip instead. Was a shame really he was a nice guy and I think they'd have got on. Mum was excited and seemed very happy to have met him which was lovely. She is very excited about visiting Castle Howard, Sarah has offered to take her. The great great great grandfather was head groundsman there and they seem to have more information on site.
