After reading George Morgan's article about twenty-five places where your family's fact may hide, I am reminded that one of the hiding places that my paternal grandmother used was not listed. When my parents were cleaning out her house after her death, my mother, out of curiosity, opened an old baking powder can and found several newspaper clippings that had been squirreled away. Thank goodness it wasn't thrown away unopened because there were some valuable news items in there.
