        Enlightening article, one tends to forget about people that (try to) 
keep a low profile, they end up separated from their lineage too. A new 
twist. It would seem that DNA will have a growing role in genealogy.

This is an interesting article, it has links to part I & II, that involves 
an unknown soldier found dead with no ID other than a 'photo'. Reads like a 
genealogy whodunnit mystery.

 "Whose Father Was He?" - an investigation into a photograph of three 
children found on the dead body of Amos Humiston, a fallen Union soldier, at 
Gettysburg in 1863.
