2 years ago I posted a message on Ancestry looking for the adopted daughter of my Mum's cousin. (Sadly Mum's cousin died when her adopted baby daughter was a few months old.)
The only information I put in my message was the baby's DOB and the hospital where she was born.
It was gone 11'clock one night last month when I suddenly had an email from Ancestry notifying me of a reply to my 2 year od message! It was the daughter of my Mum's cousin! She had seen various messages I had posted about her mother's mother etc and had tried to reply, but as she didn't suscribe to any of the genealogy websites..she was getting nowhere.
Well I don't know if it was a flook that she managed to relpy to my message or what, but as she had posted her email address I replied to her directly. Best of all..we discovered we only live about 10 miles from one another!
So they both came over to visit me on August bank holiday Monday!
Hugs all round..and what a wonderful day we had....and many more to come.
