Final Words

Stop and consider how many ancestors you have if you look back 20 or 30 generations. They are all equally significant -be they cook or captain. Some are just easier to find.

There are many undeveloped family links for you to explore for yourself. When I started, almost 2 years ago, I only knew the names of my mother’s parents and my father’s mother. It has been a great journey.

So go for it- you will find that it is a great interest. You also meet lots of helpful and generous family members along the way.

Feel free to use the material I’ve put together as you develop your own account.
