The Importance of Family History

October 11, 2015

Family history connects us to the past. We are where we are due to our ancestor's great efforts. It is our duty and obligation to research them and learn about the lives they lived. As we learn about those who lived before us, we will feel a greater sense of belonging and gain a better understanding of our own selves.

"The more you know of your history,

the more liberated you are."

--Maya Angelou

Family history is a very important work. It is exciting, fun, and addictive. It will provide a form of happiness that cannot be found anywhere else. May we push forward in this effort and access our roots!

This blog will outline fun research findings, useful research methodologies, and family stories. Our hope is to spark interest for individuals to start learning about their own family history and to spread the love of genealogy to as many people as possible!
