It has to be finding my grandmothers birth parents, and sorting out all of her full and half siblings, a total of at least 16! There is still a lot for me to do sorting out all the ancestors on that new side of the family, which should keep me occupied for 2021.
And connecting with cousins of my Dad that we did not know existed, a number whom grew up in the same city and who know some of the same people!
