Comments: Russell - Very, very impressive work! I randomlycame across your website the other day when searching forsome extended family members online (specifically mypaternal Grandfather, Donald Victor Cole, to you - PersonID I22995). I can fill in some missing modern links on that line if youare interested: Donald and my grandmother, Virginia MarySmith (ID I22996), had 4 boys, David Garry Cole (my fatherborn May 14, 1948 in Grand Rapids, MI), Patrick James Cole(which you have already included, I22997), Richard ? Cole,and Michael ? Cole (I'll have to ask my father aboutMichael and Richard's middle names andbirthdates/locations). I can also send photos if I can getmy father to cooperate :) Unfortunately Michael passed away about 20 years ago,though the rest are alive and well. Virginia also passedaway, that was in 2009 if I recall correctly. I can continue on with my own siblings if you areinterested. It was very cool to see the details of mygreat-grandparents, again I amazed at what you have beenable to accomplish here. As my father and his brothers areyour third cousins once removed, what does that make us? Please do not hesitate to contact me if you would likefurther details, I can also check with my family to see ifwe have other info that may be helpful to you. Finally,note that I'm currently living and working in Vienna,Austria (), so if you are in need of some "local" researchover here, let me know...

From left to right it's David,Patrick, and Richard, with Michael in the front row. This was taken in front of my grandparent's pizza parlor"Pinky's". The Petaluma location still has their iconicsign, also attached. Note that I simply saved the signpicture from a random Google search, so I wouldn't post it,but I thought you might enjoy seeing it. Donald andVirginia both worked for Varian working on microwavesystems (Donald was a machinist and my grandmother musthave done technical assembly), they went in on the pizzaventure with some friends from the area :) Fun stuff. ...
