My grandfather always thought his grandfather died before he was born. But then, a DNA test connected me with some faraway cousins who all had a man in common. This man had the same birthday, job, and birthplace as my great-great-grandfather, but a different last name. After a lot of searching, I found out that he had five wives and didn’t divorce any of them! He had about three sons named John from different marriages, a couple of Williams, and a couple of Marys. It was like uncovering a family mystery!
