I'm thinking about that.Michael John Neillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10785989524587275817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4081694022574326235.post-8687212010986630872011-10-26T20:53:08.305-07:002011-10-26T20:53:08.305-07:00Just wondering.....Isn't it cheating to look a...Just wondering.....Isn't it cheating to look at later censuses or other records?
