that's a great surprise!
All good wishes for your project on Morphy, and the support of his great-great niece!
Are you feeling you have her support and cooperation in your project/biography? Think
what a marvelous opportunity this will be to clarify issues in his life - who knows what family papers she might have access to! Kudos, cyn!

Thank you, Professor!
Yes, the lady is enthusiastic, as well as knowledgeable. We discovered one another
while researching genealogies. It should be fun, I'll keep you posted on its progress.
