    One person. My spouse knew his Elder Dad well. He was just a little kid.

    Yes. A few.

    About 13 years ago someone (outnfree) mentioned my family by name in a thread about KingdomHalls.

    A former bethelite friend found me here because I mentioned his real name in a thread that showed up in Google search. I apologized profusely and had the post removed. (BIG mistake on my part but he says he is not upset.)

    Someone from my old congregation and I posted same info on a thread. A few pm's and we reunited.

    Two years ago a new poster with a username that pretty well identified himself. His ex-wife was daughter of my former PO.

    There is another person who has pm'd me their number because we definitely knew each other in 1978. I have not yet returned that phone call.

    A few people know people that I knew (from former KH's) but I do not remember/recognize those posters.

    I *think* that's all. But could be another that I'm not remembering right now.

    Does anyone know what happened to outnfree??

    Same for me Karter, but then this is a small place and we all appear to have known each other somewhere along the many years of being in the bOrg.
