Genealogy is the study of your Ancestry
However today - we have the ability to combine this with story telling and to tell our families story.

The two major sites are:
Ancestry.com is $13 to $35 depending on the data (14 day free trial)
They do the series "Who do you think you Are?" http://www.nbc.com/who-do-you-think-you-are
Ancestry.org (Ancestry.net appears to be Canadian)

They only let you go so far...
