Actually made some progress on my family tree I think. I was hoping for some long lost millionaires or at least musicians. Maybe an odd Undertaker (oh no, that's me!)
But no it seems that my great grandad and grandma ran a sweet shop in London and were at it like rabbits as they had about 5 children including my Grandad?
It also turns out that my Grandad had about 4 names not including his surname. One was Cornelius and you would think that would be a rare name. But no. In 1898 it was an extremely popular name. Just like Keanu is today!!!!!
Now the hard work starts though, tracing back the siblings etc?
Sad today, that we did a Funeral of a chap who had survived Cancer, but then was taken by a simple infection caught at the Hospital. To be honest I think allot of peoples hygiene leaves much to be desired.
Using a public toilet, I am never failed to be amazed on how many folk do not wash there dannies?
I have also said before, that some Doctors do not wash there hands after examining a Corpse.
Gross!!
I always carry a small antiseptic bottle with alcohol in for when I have opened doors. It is also great to have a swig out of as well hic!!!
