Your descendents are your children and grandchildren. If they practiced Wicca it's your own fault.
If you mean ancestors, you have to first figure out where they came from. Many embassies have genealogy links at their site. Otherwise you start with the name of the country where your ancestors came from -- however many years or centuries ago -- and Google [country] + genealogy.
There are common-interest and self-help groups that will give you free advice and assistance.

first ask you antecedents for any info they can give you it is surprising what an aunt or grandparent can come up with, then with your list of grandparents or great grandparents go on to ....genforum.geneology.co.uk and leave messages for anybody with the same name.
and search for postings.
genes reunited is great and you can search that site free, it only costs if you want to contact another tree owner. and at £7 for a year it is hardly a huge expense.
you will get hooked........i am back to 1600's
happy searching

think you mean ancestors as your decendents are your children and their children. go to the web site of the morman church in salt lake, it is on the web. have been working on my ancestry there and traced male ancestry so far back to 1700's. if you believe you are cursed check with your Priest or Minister. If you can find a real Native American Shaman might try them. also be aware there are a lot of
*** ---- **** phonies out there so please be careful unless you go to your Priest,minister or Rabbi

you can't really have it for free. most geneology sites are membership based. very time consuming to have a family tree site. but i'm sure there are sites dedicated to your family surname. there is no such thing as a curse, its called toughshit when misfortune prevails, theres nothing that can be done about it.

try genesreunited.com or doing a google/yahoo/whatever search for your surname (maybe add +name or something to it - searching for my surname showed that it is a word in Spanish). I guess you could also try friendsreunited.com and I have heard that there are msg boards for that sort of thing but I don't know anything about them.

I'd like to know how to do that free, too. Unfortunately, there's no free lunch.
