I'm just curious as to how many unknown close relatives people discover?
Since May last year I've found an unknown granddaughter for my auntie. She was the illegitimate daughter of her son. He was married at the time of her conception and never told the family.
I've also found two half brothers. One that was raised by his birth mother but she said she didn't know who his father was. the second was adopted so has only just got his adoption papers and found out who his birth mother was. There was no father listed but DNA solved that problem. So I went from having 2 sisters to 2 sisters and 2 brothers in the space of 3 months.
Is my family abnormal? Do my male relatives (including my dad!) sow their wild oats more prolifically than most? Maybe I should write a book but I might wait a year or two in case more appear.....
