About three weeks ago I submitted a letter to the editor of the Lebanon Daily News asking their readers if they could contact me with any info about Gerald and Linda. I never heard anything back from them.
Imagine my surprise when I logged onto Ancestry.com to find a message referencing this letter! The sender was writing on behalf of her mother, Emma, who wanted to talk to me. After a little back-and-forth and a few phone calls I managed to reach my Great Aunt Emma–Gerald’s sister.
We’re planning to meet in the next few weeks. I’m so excited to see her and some of the other family I’ve never met!

Hi! Your question, are we related, has tweaked my curiosity, and I’ve been checking out your ancestral line here.
My husband’s family lived in the Vanango and Clarion County areas of Pennsylvania, before beginning to migrate west, where they lived awhile in IA and IL before coming to KS.
If your family ties into that area, we very well may be related!
It’s entirely possible! There are so many Klines out there it’s hard to keep track. Are you on Ancestry.com? If so, we should compare trees!
