I have begun working (actually, reworking) the descendants of Clara Wehner and Charles Darwin Blaine. A great breakthrough came with the unraveling of the life of Katherine Kolkmeyer, second wife of James George Blaine, only child of Clara and Charles. Katherine's story is a rags to riches story. She started life with her father being committed to a mental institution and ended up running Continental Van Lines! It's an interesting saga.  And today I was contacted by Joan (Siebert) Cozis, granddaughter of Edward A. Siebert, one of Anna Wehner's numerous offspring. She and I (and her mother) will be exchanging information to finish up the story of Edward A. Siebert's line. I sure want to finish up this Wehner tome soon.
