My sister has been doing some family research, and she sent me a bunch of old photos she scanned.

Oddly enough, the following picture is from a long lost second cousin that is my sister's co-worker. She didn't know she was a relative until my sister mentioned her maiden name Wilkie, and the woman was a bit shocked. They started talking and her coworker showed her a photo of their family plot in Queens, which just so happens to be my family plot. Turns out there was a fight in the family back in the thirties, and the family split apart. Her coworker is a long lost relative, a second cousin. A small world indeed.
