Unsolved Mysteries
Every researcher comes across some names in their research, which puzzle the researcher. They may have been one of their children’s sponsors? Enumerated with them on the census? Came up in a discussion with relative?...etc? How was this person relevant to the family? In some cases, following these mysterious people have uncovered a bundle of genealogical information, I would not otherwise have found.
Then we always have the unknown individual who shows up in our ancestor’s life.
