Some of you might know him but anyways,my cousin is one of the 3 men to go to the moon.His name is Michael Collins, he's an astronaut.Neil Armstrong and Buzz Ladin walked the moon but my cousin stayed in the capsoul.

Answer 1

This will be a good tidbit for your children one day. I'd collect documents now and make a scrap book, especially those from your family members, not the stuff everyone can get from the internet.

Since I was alive when they walked on the moon and in school, I found I had to make a scrapbook about the event. My mom kept it and now I have it, articles cut from the newspaper at the time.

As genealogists we have a lot of people in our trees, including lots of famous and infamous folks.  Too many to mention here.
