I think that is true for a lot of us. I was always asked what is my connection to melvin Purvis, or Purvis, Miss. Little did I know that I was gonna open up a whole bunch of lines dating back to the early 1600s with mean fighting in every war this country has been in. Today I am still learnig of Confederate soldiers that I am related to. I learn from what I do and I have fun at it also.
