Got it back to 1780 so far:)

On my mother's side: Back to the mid 1600's when my great-great-however-many-times- grandfather came to Massachusetts as an indentured servant, and there is even some less detailed info from before that time dating back to Scotland and Ireland, but it is only bits and pieces. On my dad's side: back to the late 1600's in Ireland (for both his mother and father's sides)....

Mid 1500's from the Midlands in England. We intersect with James Bowdoin as well, 2nd Governor of Massachusetts. He is of French background.

Actually I ended up getting directly into royality in England which led to Danish kings, which led to kings of Troy. Therefore I was able to date my tree back before the birth of Christ! It was awsome!

960 AD on my Dad's side and 18th century on my Mom's.

My mom researched it back into the 1600s and France.

Can't say I've ever dated from my family tree.

I've never considered dating within my family tree no matter how far back.

The 1500's Cumberland, England and Galway, Ireland

I only knew my mother.

There are about 12,000 of us that can be traced back to a single ancestor who lived around 1750. All the names of the descendants are kept in a 12 volume set of books - The Sin Lok Clan

To the 1200's.

I’ve got one line back to 1495 Nederland, another back to the 12th century Eire, and a third that intersects internet genealogies and therefore goes back to about 6 B.C., but is probably only slightly accurate. ;-)

About to 1800 in Germany. Many of the records kept in the chruches were destroyed in the world wars. Prussian and Dutch and Nordic influences are pretty apparent.

My grandmother was a nationally renowned genealogist before her death. She was one of three people that the U.S. government sent to Russia to get them to open their birth, death, and marriage records to U.S. citizens with ancestors in Russia, among many of her accomplishments. (This did eventually occur.) She traced one family line as far back as it can be traced in England. Another line, she worked on to her dying day, but she was never able to track him further than the early 1700's. She traced back many other lines in our family to the 1800's and 1700's. I am related to the doctor who was on the Mayflower. I have at least six ancestors who fought in the "War Between the States." :) I am a cousin to Mark Twain.

I think that is called inbreeding no matter how far back you go...

One branch can go back to the 1700's in Prussia (what is now Poland). Another goes back to 1700's English colonists on the Chesapeake Bay. Another branch is French-Cherokee which goes back to the late 1800's and is lost there. The other branch is German immigrants to Baltimore in the late 1800's but has not been traced back to Germany.

Not very far, my Great Great Grandad was in the Great war. He got shot in the rear end and survived!
