Sometimes the most gruesome and morbid family stories are the best ones. Part of us enjoys taking pride in our well behaved ancestors, but there is something more revealing when one comes across a really juicy scandal. Our ancestors are only human, so we can only expect that a few of them will find them selves off the path of the right and righteous and stumbling into a darker side of the human psyche. Therefore, I am creating this special page to share bits and pieces of information, as well as, misinformation on various relatives. Please note that I am including "misinformation", since some of the tales told both in newspapers and among family members have proven to be wrong; however, though incorrect the stories do tell us something about the way that individual was perceived by their family and their community.
