There a simple answer to that! Littlehand finds these chaps, and others add information. It's the reference side. We like to find out all we can about the individual. As you can see, 90th and John Young has added text, and Isandula as posted photos, next will be the Graves! surly you can see the benefit of that. Very Happy
