Myheritage brings 2 long lost cousins together in Paris

“Myheritage brings 2 long lost cousins together in Paris”

My Kishinevsky family tree has been on myheritage.com for about a year. I recently decided to contact other Kishinevskys on myheritage to try and find long-lost cousins. Someone I contacted referred me to a cousin they knew who lived in Paris, but whose family came from Bendery, a hop, skip and a jump from Tiraspol, where my family came from. Last Monday at the IAJGS conference, Jacques Kishinevsky and I met to examine photos and documents and to tell family stories. We spent 2 hours talking, me with my rusty French and a lot of body English. We can't prove with a paper trail that we are related, but I will call him cousin anyway. Being able to make this connection means a lot to me -- thank you, myheritage!
