I had a breakthrough on someone in my genealogy and was searching records this morning when I got up. I was reading an 1870 Census looking for a GGG Grandfather when I saw a woman with 4 kids, all 6 and under. Three of them had her last name. The 1 month old said "Bastard - Not Named". I nearly fell off my chair. My daughter pointed out that it was 1870. How delicate we've become!
ROTFL. Well, that’s the way it was! Direct and to the point.
