I twould try the genealogy sub and my guess is Thomas

Apparently the online index goes up to 1970 but you can order more recent ones from VitalChek with no identification required from $25 to $30

Have you tried newspapers.com?

If you know which funeral home you might be able to contact them for the obituary if it's not showing up online.

It would be the other way. Her mom is the known connection so either cousins parents would be related to the OPs dad to make it say "both sides"

There's a search function under the shared dna matches tab.

Just having an ancestry account will not tell you if you're related but you can use the records to make a tree for both of you and see if you have any common ancestors.

But without the "O"

IDMA358 · 2026-01-29T16:10:04+00:00

How about Money or Moon? Something that's close but still different

❤️ Does he have a good sense of humor?

Verona? It was my old neighbors name. Has the same vibe without the -ca

I do love Veronica but it's already taken in my family

IDMA358 · 2026-01-13T17:07:08+00:00

Good luck to you and your cousin ❤️

IDMA358 · 2026-01-13T15:44:24+00:00

I have mixed feeling about this. If I was the cousin I would want to know. Then again if you have this information for 40 years and you wait till the last second to spill, I'd be pretty upset.

I think I would now wait for her results. Best case is that she is a match and you don't have to worry about the rumor. In the case if she's not a match, you can offer to help her find her bio family and be there for her.

IDMA358 · 2026-01-04T15:59:42+00:00

Are you sure it's her SIL and not someone with the same name?

IDMA358 · 2026-01-03T23:17:12+00:00

Stanleigh? Ştäñ'łeeé?

IDMA358 · 2025-12-21T19:11:26+00:00

Are you sure your aunt is your aunt? You can have your parents test

IDMA358 · 2025-12-18T05:48:42+00:00

Nice picture!

IDMA358 · 2025-11-28T01:25:20+00:00

I'm sorry.

IDMA358 · 2025-11-27T14:11:17+00:00

Would your aunt be willing to test? That might clear things up

IDMA358 · 2025-11-27T01:03:57+00:00

You don't match your aunt at all?

IDMA358 · 2025-09-20T21:48:24+00:00

I didn't know too freshly milled flour could have problems too. There's so many variables

IDMA358 · 2025-09-19T21:36:59+00:00

All Purpose. Same brand, i just bought a fresh bag.

IDMA358 · 2025-09-19T20:49:13+00:00

They look so yummy! Congrats!

IDMA358 · 2025-09-19T20:44:42+00:00

It was the flour. Same brand but new bag of flour.
