anyone know of a site that can show me family trees that have already been made?

Question

i put this in this section because i did not know where else to put it.

Answer 1

I save this and paste it because people ask the same question 1 - 4 times a day:

What are good free sites for genealogy?
Does anyone know about the {surname} family?
How can I trace my family tree, for free?

Sometimes they ask in the genealogy category,
Arts & Humanities -> Genealogy.
Sometimes they don't. Since this is a general answer, some of the paragraphs may not apply to you. If you search or browse the resolved questions in the Genealogy category, you can find more links from other people.

Two warnings:
1) It takes time. Compiling a good family tree is like writing a term paper for a high school history class. You have to research.
2) Most of the genealogy data on the web is about people born before 1900, to protect living people's privacy. You'll have to find your grandparents (or great grandparents) off the web.

Here are some large free sites.

http://www.cyndislist.com/
(240,000+ links, all cross-indexed.)
http://www.familysearch.com
(Mormon's mega-site)
http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi
(450,000,000+ entries, some excellent, some bad, most in between)
http://www.ancestry.com/learn/facts/default.aspx?ln=
Surname meanings and origins; no specific individuals, but fun.


These are for the USA only.

http://www.usgenweb.net/
(Subdivided into state sites, which all have county sites.)
(Canada has a Canadian Gen Web, with sites for each province.)

(Social Security Death index - click on "Advanced".)
http://find.person.superpages.com/
(US Phone book, for looking up distant cousins)


These two are for the UK & Ireland only:
http://www.genuki.org.uk
http://www.freebmd.org.uk/


If you get serious, you should probably buy a genealogy program. I like Roots Magic. Family Tree Maker is very popular. Both are $29 in the USA, but you can sometimes find old versions in discount bins at software stores.

Ahhh! It's a boy! Congrats on little Julius/Jeremy/Wesley/Elliot/Henry!! Congrats! My favorites of the cribbing units is mainly the Forest Friends, however perhaps that is given that my niece has a jungle-themed room. If you desired to get all technical and consider approximately what the subject might be educating the child, I'd as an alternative my boy be an animal lover than an engineer or surfer, however I particularly doubt that are meant to be a fundamental component. :D As for the nursery rhyme lithographs, I consider doing Baa Baa Black Sheep, Kookaburra, POP! Goes the Weasel, and She'll Be Comin' 'Round the Mountain for the Forest subject is well; Row, Row, Row Your Boat, My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean, It's Raining, It's Pouring, and Rub-a-Dub-Dub paintings good for the seaside subject, and, of path, I've Been Working at the Railroad is ultimate for the coach subject! If all else fails, use a traditional person who adapts to all forms of rooms: What Little Boys Are Made of, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Jack and Jill, Humpty Dumpty, and so forth. I consider running with a subject might be extra elaborate, despite the fact that. What approximately doing a frequently historical-usual, traditional nursery, with little touches of a subject? Like, blue bedding, however a couple of wooded area crammed animals, or a image of the sea. Something alongside the ones traces will make the complete nursery organizing factor less difficult, however it will spice it up, too. Good success!

Anyplace you find will be something that the Mormon church has created. They have lots of different names for their geneology sites but they are all ultimately owned by and operated by the Mormon's. They are attempting to baptize every person ever born into thier faith so they find records and perform these large ceremenoies constantly where they add all our names to their registeries.

You may find it interesting to know that even getting a copy of your birth certificate from your home state may now include a Mormon company being paid a fee so THEY can look it up and sned you a copy of your own briuth certificate! I'll bet you didn;t know you were conrtibuting to their church through something that shoud be govenrment controlled and outside the hand of churches/
