Can you see who your earliest common ancestor is? If I don't have that line in WikiTree already, I can work on them next!

Oh... fascinating, Tad. The entanglements of collaborative trees are always amazing.

Sometimes finding a second person with the same name is a total relief, right? Good work sorting this out and correcting the record for the next seekers.
