I have boxes and boxes of other people's Family history found in such places .....I tried my hardest to reunite it with owners to no avail.....I have to look the other way these days or I would be inundated.......I could also imagine my own Family History getting mixed up with it lol......100 years hence.....Who was this fellah?.....can't find him anywhere .....I wonder if he was adopted?.....sheesh sometimes my mind runs away with me and the made up stories it could tell :-D
