Yes, that I am all too aware of. It's like about 50%, or more, Mormons also
putch in and help with their own full family geneaology as well. Not that that
in itself is at all a bad thing, mind you.

Yes... Apparently they do. I'm honestly wondering how they did that
specifically though. And more specifically, /why/ they did. heh

I mean, if I wanted them to know me, I'd have told them. Eh, oh well, don't
really care. I've moved three times since then and they haven't come to my door
yet.. Though, when they did this, I had been living in  the same place for 2~3
years at least. I haven't lived at the same place for more than 2 years since
then. Though now where I'm at, I'm intending to stay at least 2+ years until I
can get an actual house to call my own, instead of living on rent and
apartments.
