So – how are you related? What is your connection? Are you a direct member of my immediate family, or are you connected closer to the trunk of the family tree?<\/span>

How are you keeping track of the connections? Software? What brand? Paper and Pencil like my grandfather did?<\/span>
<\/span>
I am looking forward to hearing about you.<\/span>
