That's impressive. I'm related to Stonewall Jackson by marriage. I think researching family history is fascinating.
Very cool.
My parents immigrated to NZ, had me and died. I didn't even know my grandparents names, let alone met any relatives.
Starting with my mum's cellotaped old birth certificate I've now built a family tree containing over 200 names, one line going back to the 1600's. No one famous yet - a sailor killing americans in 1812, two police inspectors and a 2nd LT in 1918 is the best I've got so far.
It's fun, but can be very frustrating. I've gone off on terrible tangents, only to relaise I'm tracking completely tghe wrong person.
