Found! A photo from Grandma's side

[Gwyneth W]

I've been researching since 2007; my public tree on A** has about 500 people. I loved my English grandma, who came to Canada from London at the turn of the century and never returned. We knew very little about her family except that her mother died young. Her father was Swedish, a tailor, with one son and 6 daughters. The son left home early, and continues to elude my searches. But of the daughters who married, I discovered I had mistaken her spouse for one of only two possibles (Free BMD used to show who got married on a given day, but not always to whom). Once I realized my error, I found another person researching that branch of the family. She kindly posted a photo of Grandma's sister, and shared some amusing anecdotes about the husband.

This is the third time I've found living relatives with information and photos that I could never have seen, were it not for the internet! I'm also grateful for this forum, which has provided wonderful guidance and support.
