One of the things I've discovered whilst researching my family history is that the person sat opposite you at work could be a relative or that your boss could be your cousin!
Both of these have happened to me, or more accurately, to members of my family. I discovered that a distant cousin had my younger brother for his boss and, more recently, that one of my wife's colleagues also has a connection to my tree, albeit very tenuous! It was quite lucky for her though, as the line which connected us goes all the way back to 1580!
Its a small world and getting smaller!
Keith.
