People Discovering Family Secrets

Nowadays, more people are interested in uncovering their family histories, and sometimes they get lucky and find out surprising things. In our collection, these individuals have learned remarkable stories that have completely changed their perspectives.

After my grandfather passed, we found out he had fathered a child when he lived in Italy. He never knew. His mother intercepted any letters from the Italian girl. He came home, met and married my grandmother and had 4 children.
I forgot who in the family found out and how. It’s crazy to think we have a whole Italian family out there!
