So I got an email, actually several, a couple of days ago from a contributor at Findagrave, asking me to add some relationship links for some folks I've added.

I thought, "Relationship Links? WTF?"

I did not know about these before, probably because I haven't paid enough attention to the memorials themselves. So I looked closer. Turns out that I can add a link from my mother to both of her parents, and to the Littlest Bro.

Not only that, I can link her to my Dad, and thence to his parents (well, his Dad, his Mom is not yet entered at Findagrave; my bad, can't locate the correct cemetery info at the moment). And I can link their parents to their parents, and so on and so on...

And having learned this exciting new information, I have added a number of other links for memorials I own there, and sent emails to other folks who have so kindly added other relatives. This is cool. I'm, like, totally stoked to learn this.

Update a few minutes later: Not to toot my own horn or anything, but in addition to actual relatives I've added others as well to the site, and have contacted people who have listed these folks at Ancestry.com. Got some responses and thanks too. This makes for good feeling, to help these folks in their searches for ancestral info. And if I haven't said it enough before, thanks to the people who helped me in my searches.
