SPECIAL NON-GENEALOGY NOTE: I have had personal experience with Bladder Cancer, and am a volunteer for a national effort to raise awareness of the causes and symptoms of this disease. If you or someone you know has bladder cancer, please refer them to the following web site for excellent information and support. Also, those who are at high risk for bladder cancer are smokers or ex-smokers, workers in the solvent and chemical industries, fire fighters, and others. Also, knowing the symptoms of bladder cancer will allow early detection when the chances of a cure are much better. Go to www.bcan.org  for information.
