I don't know about you, but sometimes searching for family members gets a little overwhelming when you can't seem to knock down that brick wall. Here's something on the lighter side...

Some folks will do anything to get a picture of a loved one...

From the Sep 2000 Reader's Digest:

While I was working for a photofinishing company, we received a reprint order for an old black-and-white photograph of a man milking a cow. The man was sitting behind the cow, and all that was visible of him were his legs and feet. A note accompanying the order read: "This is the only picture I have of my great-grandfather. Please move the cow so I can see what he looked like."       - contributed by June M. Butler
