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

even as a victim?

It is family lore that one of my floozy, London born and raised ancestors could easily have been a victim of Derek the Disreputable.

Here in Australia back in 1938,my grandfather,a detective,along with a colleague, investigated and later arrested a serial killer;a sensational case here back in its day.A couple of years later my father,on wartime service in the U.K.,in 1940-41,experienced some of the Luftwaffe air-raids and their aftermaths,including the infamous attack on the city of Coventry.

Your grandfather and father were both involved in service of the highest order. My hat is off to them.
