New Sections - History

Two new sections have been added to the site, Desperately Seeking and Almost Famous. Desperately Seeking lists my current genealogical questions (generally on the Bird family); Almost Famous looks at famous people who happen to share surnames with families on this site. There isn't necessarily any connection with them.
