I'm an old sentimental genealogist but I would say that if it was an inherited trait, our ancestors would have handed down all they knew and they didn't so.....

I rest my case

My interest in tracing my family history was sparked about three years ago when I was given my gt grandparents family bible. I wonder what they would think of my efforts to uncover the past....lol....they would probably hope the family skeletons remain buried.
