That is great. A coincidence too. I hope you get to meet him.

I expect it's very possible you have walked close to him at some time, Mark, as you are in the same town.
I do hope you get to meet him, he will probably have a wealth of info about the family which you may not know.

I miss my late Dad's cousin, she died just over a year ago but had told me loads of anecdotes and information on my Dad's side of the family, bless her. I will be forever thankful for the many things she told me that made the family seem more real to me, we never saw much of Dad's family as they lived some distance away and my Dad didn't have a car.
