Member Since: March 2005 Posts: 14 Send Message	After enjoying family history for some time i found my grandfather had a 'first family' who he left to be with my grandmother. After some searching i found his daughter (who would have been a newborn when he left) and really want to make contact. My father has asked me to write a letter but i don't know where to start.I don't know if she even knows about my dad and i don't want to upset her. Please help!
