Rule #2 of finding living descendants in your family tree: Work your way back to the starting ancestor
Trace the direct line back ONLY to the starting ancestor, while gathering any children/possible children and siblings/possible siblings as you go, but DO NOT focus on them. Do NOT use collected research, unless you hit a brick wall. If you do need to use it for a brick wall, then use it very loosely.
