Ah, just like my grandfather's middle name. We thought at first that it was his mother's maiden name but turned out to be his grandmother's. Led us astray at first.

Margaret...
I started doing this about 7 yrs ago. I wanted to know where my Dads middle name and my Grannies name came from.

I found my grannies but my Dads goes way back to my brick wall.
