Tailpiece
This is our strangest family story. "No," I said, confronted with a family tree and being asked whether the titled person on it was one of our Cope relatives, "I'm afraid not." Then after a pause for reflection I added, "but he is one of Frank's!" Right name, wrong family, The gentleman concerned married a not too distant cousin of one of Frank's ancestors.
