My daughter and I had been searching for the origins of my grandfather, Alfred Denny, for several years. We had nothing definite except that he married Minerva Ann Hamilton in Michigan in 1860.
When I was a small child, my father had given me the address of his "Aunt Maggie," Mrs. William Rarick of Everson, Washington. She and I exchanged letters for about three years while I was still a youngster. My father died without giving any further information about his relatives.
About eighty-five years after my correspondence with Aunt Maggie, I decided to see if I could pick up the trail and find out exactly how she fit into the family puzzle. By then I was in my nineties so I knew the odds were not on my side, but I called the telephone operator for a number of anybody by the name of Rarick in the town of Everson, Washington. She told me they have a Charles Rarick and an L. Rarick. I asked her to ring Charles, but there was no answer so I asked her to try L. Rarick.
A woman answered and I said, "Hello, this is Carleton Denny. I am trying to locate relatives of Margaret Rarick."
The lady on the telephone took a long breath and hesitantly said, "She was my grandmother."
I learned that Aunt Maggie was my grandfather’s half sister. The "L" stood for Luella, who still used her maiden name. I had found my family.

题干:我何时决定查出麦琪姑妈的消息?根据原文“About eighty-five years after my correspondence with Aunt Maggie,I decided to see if I could pick up the trail and find out exactly how she fit into the family puzzle.”,译文为:在与麦琪姑妈通信长达85年后,我决定看我是否能找到线索,查出姑妈是怎样和家族之谜连在一起的。原文明确给出了信息,是在通信85年之后。
