One of the best things about WikiTree is how history comes alive. Bill McDonald was searching the internet to learn more about his Grandfather who was rescued by Ruth Russell in 1891 and had his name changed to protect him. Bill found Ruth’s WikiTree profile and we have been working together to tell his grandfather's wonderful story. I LOVE WIKITREE!
