I was answering an e-mail about family stories with rose_lemberg when my mother walked up and handed me a letter from one of her cousins, explaining how we're related to Bel Kaufman, who just turned a hundred today.

(My great-great-grandfather's older brother, Jacob Kaufman, was her grandfather. My relation to Sholem Aleichem is only by marriage.)

That was pleasingly random.
