A few years ago my 40 year old son told me he knew little of his ancestry. I had always known my relatives growing up and wanted to make sure he was acquainted with them the way I had been. With current technology I am able to create an in depth family tree for those interested in my family. I use familysearch and findagrave to document our history. Because I am the oldest of 12 children I was the one who always collected the pictures and documents. I discovered I possessed all the needed treasure to flesh out a picture of relatives going back to the early 1800s. I also discovered that I thoroughly enjoy doing the research and solving the clues.
