A relative purchased a few lots in in the 1890s in a town near where they lived and ended up running a general store in a building they built on the property. The business only lasted a few years, but they did have a partner who helped them with the ill-fated concern. Later it was discovered that the partner had more of a connection with the relative than I knew–they were foster brothers.

Business associates may have connections that are not immediately known or obvious.
