Hi Rebecca - Your husband and I are cousins! How delightful to find another cousin. Our great-grandfather, George Z, had 2 wifes - Mattie Mitchell and Ella McLin. My grandmother was Pansy and Thelma was her half-sister. Is your mother-in-law still living? My dad, John Comstock, died in 2002, but my mom is still living. I don't remember your husband's name, I recall something about his sister. Unfortunately we didn't get to Richmond too often after Great-grandma Z passed away (I remember going to her funeral). I'd love to hear from you again.
