Kevin's distinguished relative?



While going through old issues of the Boston Traveler (or Traveller <g>), I
found a page 1 story from July of 1922 that speaks about a certain James A.
Vahey, an inventor and radio engineer for the Edison Electric Company who is
lavishly praised for his latest invention, a triangular-shaped device which
locates points where electric circuits are broken.  The Traveler says this
man has "through his invention, [done] more to maintain electrical service
by locating cable breaks and short circuits than any other individual in the
country."  Kevin, is he related to you, and did he leave you any money?!!!
