Nicknames are enough to drive you crazy some times. Most of my young life I always assumed that because my mother and I are red heads and her father's name was Rusty that he was also a red head. When I began my search for our family my mother corrected me and told me that was a nick name (no one knows where from) and that grandpa actually had jet black hair. His real name was Von Joseph Roe. Go figure. Great article. Nicknames are enough to drive you crazy some times.
