Police found dead twins

In this article, they are saying that the police have located the family of reclusive twin sisters who were found dead in their home in California, last month. This had taken eleven days and the help of dozens of strangers to find these two girls. They live for nearly forty years in South Lake Tahoe but often shunned their neighbors. Their shared life had ended in a mysterious double death. The police say that they found one sister in a bedroom and the other one in a hallway during a routine welfare check. They were 73 years old. The police usually don’t release the names of the dead without informing their relatives, to ask permission too. They had such little information about these twins’ personal lives to work from. The investigators issued a public plea this week asking for help in notifying the sisters' next kin. They sent out emails and phone calls to find help of amateur genealogists who read media accounts of the sisters' deaths. The investigators tracked down a first cousin and two second cousins late this Wednesday. The cousins say that they haven't heard from the sisters in years. They said that they lost contact with them once other family members started passing away. These sisters had a different last name then the rest of the family, which is why the police had such a hard time finding their family members. This puzzle is far from solved. They are still investigating them on how they died.
