To help remedy this, Woodford bought a lady's wig, trimmed it down to a respectable male length, ran that ad in the underground Times and discovered a need for his product...

Any male church member may be a stand-in for a male ancestor; any female church member for a female ancestor -and "ancestors" need not even be directly related. But first the ancestors must be found, and each church member is charged with tracing his own antecedents, collecting their names and putting them...
