Great link, Bob!  I just started looking, and I already think I found my husband's great-grandmother and her siblings listed on a children's page under the Roll of Honor a few times for figuring out puzzles.

I get very wrapped up in this site. I have found everything from little blurbs about horticulture awards my ggg grandfather won to my gg grandmother's estate fraud case.

Know what you mean

I found how my grandmother's uncle and cousins did various pursuits with the Knickerbocker Field Club.
Tennis matches, obstacle races, potato races, cycle outings, concerts etc

It's very exciting to get these everyday pictures of our ancestors lives, beyond the dates. And to have it at our fingertips is incredible.
