Ok cuz - I have added Nel and Marian, then your Father and Grandfather, Bernard and Elmer Painter. Can you provide birthdates for Father and Grandfather? I can guess 1915 for Father (since Nel died in 1918 when he was 3). This is like those word puzzles in algebra class, which I always hated, but did well on.

So now that we are cousins....where do you live? Maine? I remember how cold it is there, and so I moved to California from Connecticut.

I have to say that part of the fun of this genealogy project is meeting and chatting with people, some relatives who you've never met, but with a common interest. I only regret not starting earlier when my parents were here to discuss it with. But then, the Internet wasn't really available then, with the wealth of info that I've learned........Richard
