I got a big envelope in the mail today, and inside were pages and pages of notes from my Aunt about the names and relationships of family members! So now on my dad's side, it goes back something like six or seven generations, and after that, it goes immediately back to Berlin, Germany, so I guess when I can pay for the Ancesty.com full access, I'll be paying ten extra dollars for the international one so I can trace that further back, too. Which I was going to do anyway, because mom's side dead-ends at Ellis Island.
It's so awesome. All tehse people-- huge families-- my 4great grandpa had 18 or 20 children with only two different wives. Crazy.
And there are new leafs on the tree, including a few that link to other people's trees, which, of course, I have to pay to access. But it's nice to know they're there!
