Yes! I second Michael's congrats to Sandy. I'm trying to remember the last
time I saw my first cousin Dale. It might of been 1976. Unfortunately I was
only 24 and trying to finish my PhD in physics and I didn't have time to
talk to him about genealogy. That interest didn't really start for me until
2005 when I took a Y-DNA test and I got in contact with my first cousin
Sandy (whom I haven't seen since age 3 in 1955?) and Michael.
Anyway, I'm very excited Sandy will get Dale's stuff.
BTW, a woman who descends from my (and Sandy's) Great-Great Grandfather
Timothy Good "Tink" Cooley matched my DNA on Ancestry.com contacted me.
This is her Cooley Line: Tink Cooley > Benjamin Franklin Cooley (I have a
photo) > Thomas Jeffererson Cooley (I have a photo) > Laura Lizzie Cooley
