Her family tree led this Chicago woman to an unmarked grave in Ingersoll, Ont.

My sister, who coincidentally also lives in Chicago is also a family researcher and keeper of the family tree. She has traveled long distances to locate graves of sometimes obscure relatives, and one time to find the orphanage where my mother and her sisters lived for years. Much of it is of little interest to me, because it involves distant relatives I know nothing about. But every once in a while, she comes onto something interesting.

John Hisson's story is interesting because the likelihood of finding any trace of him seemed pretty small.
