Oh my goodness...
Fluttrbye; I have always been interested in tracking back roots,
I remember i was told that my grandmother had a bible that had a family tree- I always wanted a copy of the page.
Then with my dad. it was really hard. due to i think he had limited information himself, and for his moms side, it is just her name he knew when he was 5.
But just by using one of your sites you listed..... I think I found my great, great grandma

... was not till I saw her son's name and that would had been my dad's grantpa that was her son...... he raised my dad and he used to talk about him often.. and it was one of those names that i just thought were odd, as well his uncle's name is odd to me... so they sort of stick out
thanks for the link.. interesting indeed

Edit
Actually i had a few hours to waste

i found out more in that few hours than i ever would had from talking to my parents... the search shall continue on down time

I think it would be neat to give my sisters (for their kids) some information... I even found some "clippings" from the town news paper that we were born in of our entries

think that may be a little fun too...
