Ancestry is a world wide hobby which has captured the imagination of millions of people. Genealogy gives us our roots, background and a sense of history for us today. Knowing where our ancestors are from and their occupations, often explains our love or hate for things that we did not understand before. It often uncovers the darker side that was never talked about, as some were convicts or loose women etc. things that were rarely passed on in the verbal history.
