Genealogy and Google

To paraphrase Forrest Gump, "Google is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you'll get."
Sometimes you get a wonderful surprise. Sometimes you get "Crunchy Frog" (a Monty Python reference).
This time I found the Golden Ticket.

While researching my family tree, I did a Google search on two of my ancestor surnames "Sieberns Brickner" and on the page of links returned, I found this link to a short biography of my great grandfather George W. Brickner. The bio provided more information on my great grandfather and my great great grandparents.

A few more gaps in my ancestry have been filled in.
