Thanks

Thanks to all who have sent me helpful hints on locating my friend's birth mother. I cannot image not knowing your mother or her family, except from my father's view point. His mother died when he was a baby and he never knew his own grandparents or uncles. You have heard that story and our trip to West Virginia to meet his first cousins in 2005. His grandmother was Ida Jane Hatt and the first Hatt in a long line that I have researched.
