I do that too Gwen.

I found loads of letters, wills, photos, the lot, in a second hand shop in Georgia USA. The fellah was of English descent, so I bought them cheaply and began the long slog of finding Decendants....Alas, although he came from a large family, he had no children and any others related to him were also deceased and without kin.

Glad to hear your find has a happy ending :-)
