Rory your interactions are hard to beat. More or less? In my view and
somewhat limited experience in geneology, I find that researching and
recognising relatives and their relatives is actually making more of it!!
and the thrill of the chase. I also enjoy the human interest diversion, say
in an airport or in a cab & someone says, "oh, you come from such & such,
you must know Joe Bloggs". Sometimes I actually do. Being a member of the
Sinclair clan in Australia it has been relatively easy to be able to
identify people others in the clan ask about, especially relatives, but when
I met so many Sinclairs from around the rest of the world, it was great to
have just one or two incidences of Australians (not clan members) actually
knowing Sinclairs overseas. I agree though, it is more often likely to be
mathematical chance or of course the fact that like attracts like and if
people share the same interests particularly in a small country like
Australia its more likely that you will attend some function and will always
know a few faces. Will I recognise yours? Annette
