Now #DNA test matches are often adoptees or have some big branch of their tree missing. It's fun to help when I'm able. Two different times I've been able to tell someone who a parent or both parents is/are. That's a wonderful feeling. #Genealogy #DNA
@AlphaCentauri Eek. A horrid, sad story.
@AlphaCentauri There's a dark side to everything humans touch.
@poemblaze Turns out I had an older half brother and half sister through my dad, both adopted from different moms. It was great to have new siblings!
@SuperJude I found a half brother 19 years older than me.
@poemblaze
With the occasional dark side ... the names of the parents of Joseph Augustus Zarelli, the "boy in the box" have been leaked. Both are dead. No survivors had any idea of the boy's existence, and they're taking a lot of shit from people angry about the boy's murder. He likely was put up for adoption, as was an older sister.
