The internets are moving along much better now

And congrats to [livejournal.com profile] laurushka who got the joke.  She gets wood as her prize.

I have found the mother lode on information on my paternal grandmother's paternal side.  Someone has done quite a bit of research for which I am very thankful.  I do feel sorry for my great great great something or other, she popped out 12 kids from 1879 to 1810.  Plus, she seems to have married brothers or at least two different Eames.  I am making all children the 2nd husband's.  I am not liking the recyling of names either, one Daniel is enough, you don't need another one a year later.  Honestly, Molly, you needed to learn the word NO.

Yeah, my family has a lot of duplicate names. Sure, some are by marriage, but still, within the "grandkids" on one side there are 2 Aarons, 2 Heathers, 2 Matthews, and 2 Rachels. 1 Shane, 1 Amanda, 1 Daniel and 1 Josh.

I am finding tons of duplicated names (and it seems my relatives really intermarried within families) but no duplicates within the same group of children, thank you very much. Maybe Molly got tired of thinking up names after the 11th child and just recycled a name.
