Anyone who knows me, knows I have a chronic sleep disorder, insomnia, I can days without sleeping, so once I finially do go to sleep, everyone knows to leave me alone and let me sleep. I also had lost a half lung to cancer in 2000, an since then, the sleep problem seemed to be magnified, so while I'm trying to recuperate, and since I was up all the dang time, I figured I would start our family tree. Since we had lost my husbands head familys, and his older sister, I thought to start there, since I knew much research had been done on the Indiana Tomlinson family, there were thousands of them there, so thought to contact them and let them know I would carry on up here in Washington state. Well, I couldn't find a single one, that I recognized a name, so joined lists an such, but also thought I would branch out some and maybe find a lead from the maiden name of hubbys grandmother, Lute Oldfield, I started searching, nothing, the only two names I had for our Oldfield family were Lute, and her brother Harvey. I searched for weeks looking for Lute, twelve hours a day looking at anything and everything and still nothing, one night/morning, as it was three in the morning, and I was finally starting to wear out, I gave it up an went to bed, and just as I'm starting to drop off, I hear this voice, "GO TYPE IN HARVEY" I think I grumbled something nasty, not wishing to get up, and again heard it, only louder, so by now I'm cussing, an grouching, slapped on my old robe, slippers in hand, and stumbled back to the pc, it's 5:30 A.M. sunday morning, and I'm in an ill mood, so I get online, go to LDS site, type in Harvey, and you know the rest, not only Harvey, but Lute (Lutitia) an several more came up as well, I printed it out, turned off the pc, an went back to bed, right before dozing off, I mumbled "thanks Harve, but quit waking me up ok" I think I heard muffled giggling before I dropped off.
