I've done about as much as I can without spending money.

My favorite Aunt has compiled years of her own research going back 13 generations on my grandma's side and 15 on my grandpa's side. I'm so glad she shares it with me.

Yes my wife and I have. We have currently gone back so far to 1836.

I'd love to. Unfortunately, I don't even know where to start. My father was adopted at age 5. He never told me his parents' names, if he even remembers them. I have no contact with him now, alas. All I have is a last name of Flynn and that they come from Limerick, Ireland. My grandma (the adoptive parent) told me the Ireland bit.

My grandmother and grandfather did about a decade back, and I greatly benefitted from their research- all sorts of family stories! I love family history! Where else would I have found out my great-grandfather ran whiskey for Al Capone?

I started working on my dad's side a few years ago but when got very frustrated with my grandmother's research ~ her maiden name was Jones so you can imagine the thousands of entries to check.

I have 2 or 3 relatives on both sides that have done some work.

My Aunt and one of my cousins have.

I have... Since February, 2003 (when my job was eliminated), I have added almost 13,000 linked individuals and more than 4400 marriages to my database, and have thousands of other related/linked indivuals in saved files on my computer. I also have thousands of family photos and documents. ;-)

Several years ago. I had just started using the computer, and someone gave me a genealogy program as a gift. Since my Dad's side are Mormons, and related to a famous person, it was easy to do that part. I was lucky to also find a cousin who had already done a very professional job of researching my Mom's side, so most of the work was already done for me.

I looked up a lot of my relatives on ancestry.com and I found out some interesting information about them.

My sister is currently researching our family tree, so far she's gone back to the late 1700's/ early 1800's.

My father had our complete family line mapped out but that was stolen from me in the 80's. Myself, my Clan, and some Gadje friends in Romania are trying to help rebuild it. Since then I have found my Clan after decades of looking, which nails down my mother's side. My paternal grandfather is, so far, unfindable. I suspect that this is due to record keeping in Romania really being a bit sketchy and the tendency for old courthouses and whatnot to be lost. Some Gadje friends are trying to help with his end. My maternal grandmother was disowned by her family and Clan for marrying my grandfather and then her family was destroyed in the Holocaust. My Clan is trying to find anyone who remembers her or her family. Odds are very slim to none of finding her. We keep trying.

My mother has. There are some very interesting things to be found...... I had SEX with my COUSIN!

My mum is close to completing our family tree, there is a few people she is having trouble locating but she will get there, she has been doing it for about 5 years now and its huge i cant believe how far back she has got, im just waiting to find out if Davy crockett is a relative lol

My brother has, and he has confirmed what I always suspected - we were working class as far back as 1744. When he gets even farther back in time I'm sure he'll find no Lords and Ladies in our family tree.

My family has been traced way back by a gentleman who I don't know. He has a web site and has done many families but I think they are all some how linked to mine..I found out from the site I have relatives in America, it would be interesting to meet up with them

Yes. So far we have got back to the 1500's but had to hire a genealogist to do most of the work.

Have been studying my family tree for over 20 years. This is where I get my monica 'Wulfweard'. This is the earliest known ancestor of mine Wulfweard the White who died in 1073

My grandma did a lot of digging into the history of the family she married into. Thanks to her, I know that I can trace my ancestry back 13 generations to a blacksmith in Massachusetts colony in the mid 1600s. He was illiterate, so his name was written down a few different ways by various legal clerks. His family crest is identical to the crest from a family in England with a very similar name with records going back the the 1200s. They even have a town named after them in England, possible signs of some minor nobility.

I've been researching my family history since 1994. When I was little I would go with my dad to cemeteries and court houses to *help* him. He has been researching since 1974. I hope to pass the tradition to at least one of my children.

(long answer) Yes, genealogy is one of my passions in life. I firmly believe that every person, place, object .. has a story to tell. I love "the hunt" .. the research .. the history .. the PEOPLE we meet along the way. I'll go through census scans online. I'll go through heavy ledgers full of land deeds or probate records in a local town hall or courthouse. I'll read microfilms or online databases if available of ship passenger lists. I'll visit cemeteries .. and walk the aisles if I need to .. finding and claiming ancestors. I'll visit churches and see if any old ledgers exist for baptisms, marriages, deaths .. as far back as I can go. Military records. Pension records. City and town directories. School yearbooks. Club memberships. Vintage newspapers. ANYTHING. Old photos. And learning who the heck is IN them and what the story BEHIND the images are. Old "stuff", mementos, pins, plaques, collections, jewelry, uniforms, you name it ... finding .. photographing .. Oral history: interviewing all who can add to "the story behind" any or all of the above. How did x and y meet? Where did they honeymoon? Was there a reception? What family traditions? Any cultural threads there - or in recipes - or holiday rituals? On and on and on it goes. Short answer: yes Longer answer: yes. A lifetime project. An honor to search, find, organize, preserve, share.

Yes, I've done genealogy work. I visited a genealogy library and bought a computer program to set up all the charts to go with it. It's been fun!
