Hidden Treasures

Another wonderful tip from Ancestry's Daily Newsletter. I wonder how many
of us look for hidden treasures?

Hidden Treasures
By Allen Lawrence

In Cindy Petrie's tip "Search Old Furniture for Hidden Treasures," I was
reminded of the time we cleaned out a friend's grandmother's home. They
found important papers, money, stocks and bonds in a tear in a mattress, and
in of all places the freezer wrapped in foil packages. The latter was an
accident when I bought the freezer and started to clean it out and one of
the bundles burst open. Were we surprised! Now we look everywhere. "

I wish everyone peace, happiness and success in their never ending search
for ancestors.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone.

E-Traveller...

I found two family treasures, or at least the secrets were kept that way. My
mother found she had a half brother and sister when she was 55 and my wife
found that her mother had been married before and her Dad had been the
co-respondant in the 1944 divorce!

TImes have certainly changed.

Happy Christmas
