| Ruth Chappell and George Miller Roosevelt, Utah 2002 |
I learned a valuable lesson about contacting new-found relatives. I was excited to find new pieces of information that allowed me to contact a long-lost relative.
I had learned about my Aunt Ruth. Ruth Margaret Hilkman Chappell. She and her brother, George (my father) were adopted in 1930. Their name changed to Miller. Aunt Ruth married, became a Chappell. She passed away in 2004. The new found obitiary had important contact informion. But was it too late? Click here to find out what happened...
