when you consider all she wanted to know was where her Grandparents were buried & we see her at the graveside with a brother she never knew she had.
This has to go down as one of Roots' greatest successes.

Agreed.  Even surpasses the Teddy Bear story by miles.

Hi,

What a great success for RootsChat, although we never got a mention on the broadcast. Great team effort with a special mention to "lizdb" and "carol8353", who were there from the start, and did so much to help. Well done, ladies.

We had a great reunion party on Saturday, and I met Carol who did a lot of the work, also Jean (weste) who also contributed, and credit should also go to the others on the Topic, who could not attend the reunion like lizdb who made the breakthrough in finding her correct birth record

I must say that they were a lovely family. I don't think any of us have ever been thanked so much in our lives. We were made so welcome. Pity rootschat was n't mentioned but they probably did n't want to advertise, after all without rootschat how would we have got involved in it!

A big well done to all the Chatters involved, what a great result.  I followed this fascinating thread from the start and couldn't believe how it turned out.  It was lovely to see Diane meet her brother for the first time, and the photos are great.   :D
