It is a sad fact of genealogical research that I often discover long-lost relatives after they’ve died, and indeed it is the discovery their obituaries that reveals them. In that vein, last night, after literally decades of searching, I discovered the fate of my long-lost first cousin Leslie when I found her obituary on Ancestry.com. She was about ten years older than I, and I discovered she died last November in Medford Oregon.
