That's great, Xin.

Did she find you or did you find her? I ask because it always seems to be me contacting others. It would be nice if someone would actually contact me and say 'hey, we could be 3rd/4th (whatever) cousins, lets try and work this out'. But it aint happened yet.  :'(

I have made quite a few connections by being proactive but ...

Just heard that they've received my sample so I now have to sit and wait. I'm not expecting very much from it. It would be nice to find a link to  my mysterious great grandfather but I don't think I will.

I initially sent a response to her ... and out of the dozen or so I sent... sadly she is the only positive response.

But she is such a close rellie it is really wonderful.

Just a shame its a few years to late for her to meet my wonderful father.

:(

still who knows ..  what will come of it. 

xin   exciting.
