Last year I finished a picture album project and story of my brother James who was killed in his T38 training jet in Texas. His children didn't know anything about him. Their mother remarried shortly after my brother's death and the new husband broke off all ties with us. After 40 years I decided to start searching for them. They had been adopted by their step father and he changed their last name. It was difficult and without "google" I might not have found them.
