So we had a lesson in church a couple days ago about doing our family history. So I decided to give it a go since my only grandparent alive is my grandmother and she is 92. So I talked to her to try and get some information down so I can find her ancestors and my grandfathers ancestors. I went on the computer and I got all excited and I was finding people and others have already found others. YES!
And then there was the set back. Well I have a problem with my great-grandfathers ancestors. He changed his name at one point while he was in the states, which is kinda annoying to track down. Also, my mom is in possession of two of his birth certificates. That's right, he has two of them. 'Aint he special. One says he is from Germany and the other Russia. And there is some speculation for Poland as well. All my excitement is on a halt until I get over this little bump.
go you! Family history is super fun! I need to get on that. I haven't ever tried to find people, but Jonathan has and it's been really exciting trying to figure out who this person is.
