Amazing , i was sat chatting to a friend online when a pop flashed about genes reunited . a bit later i thought i had nothing to do so why not put my grandparents name in just for fun and see what happens .. amazingly they appeared . Well i thought , this is more likley to be coincidence so put in another few names which again where there and i noticed were all linked to one particular lady . I decided to join up and mail this lady not for one minute thinking there would be anything in it and even more so being surprised at myself as the thought of tracing family had never occured to me . Much to my surprise , that same evening i had a reply from the lady whop provided information that without a doubt proved we are all members of the same family and that they had been looking for this part of the family for a long time ... and all this out of a few moments boredom ... AMAZING !
