I’ve been getting into tracing my heritage and, with a few hours to kill last night (that could have been put to better use, but what the hell), I built up on some basic research I had started about a year ago.

I decided to climb up my family tree, and go out on the branch marked “Mother”.  This was all done through ancestry.com, which is cool.  I thought I would share my roots – well, the interesting parts.  Well, the parts that are interesting to me, with a veiled attempt to make it interesting to anyone outside my family who is reading this.

I've decided to "tell my story" on a seprate page of this blog, apart from the regular posts.  I hope to update it periodically.  It's here.
