Was a long-ago family member of yours part of an historic event

even as an onlooker?

It is family lore that one of my disreputable female, London born and raised ancestors could easily have been a victim of Jack the Ripper.

Grandpa was part of WW2. He never spoke of what he did during the war but when dementia set in, he started speaking all these languages we never knew he knew. So we looked up his war records.. The records said he was a Baker in the army. It showed when he boarded transportation which he did a lot. And when he was arrested. (Also a lot) But everything else was completely blacked out.. We think he might of been part of military intelligence.
