Tad - If you know the serial number of your "family piece" you can order a PGCA Research Letter in order to learn the original factory records on it. A research letter is $100 for a "Forum Associate" such as yourself or you can join the PGCA as an annual member for $40 and pay just $40 for the letter, thereby saving yourself $20.
Unfortunately, most research letters won't include your family member's or ancestor's name but there is always that possibility.
