That's all so cool. You might pick an ancestor and write a historical novel about them and their times.

My Gran researched our family history back in the 1970. Her family, the Grahams, were prolific and seemed to have kept detailed records going back millennia. It's all terribly interesting. And, somewhat fantastical, I think.

I've wanted to do the genealogy thing for a variety of reasons, least of which is knowing who's a king or princess. I'd just like to know the truth. But, I can't justify that cost when we're making choices between groceries and bills or medicines.
