Family Secrets???
So I have always known that there were some secrets in my family. My Brother and Cousins agree. I was hoping a favorite Aunt would drink too much and let some tidbits slip. It never happened.
But, the internet is a funny thing. So are those genetic testing companies.
Since my parents and an Aunt (who are the holders of the following secrets) will never explore PPOT, I am comfortable sharing:
1) I have an extra Cousin who I didn't know about. She shares the same parentage as a Cousin that I did know about but was conceived out of wedlock and was adopted. Most of my extended family doesn't know New Cousin exists.
2) My Great Grandfather upgraded his wife with a newer model but didn't get rid of the old one. He was convicted on Federal Mann Act charges. It is unclear if he ever served time. There was an appeal but a FOIA search turned up nothing.
Let's hear the secrets that you have stumbled onto.
