Everytime I begin to look at my family's history I just can't stop. I would love so much to see everything that not just my family has expeirenced but all of the people and nationalisms from which I came.

It's definitely not just you!
I started at age 11, I'm now 30 and still doing research. In fact, I now do it professionally and help others when I'm not in school (getting my MA right now). I've also been working on a research project for the past 6 years on an unrelated family and constantly have to remind myself they are not my family!

Hi, I specify a website which is owned by Automativox Computer Company, its a open source family tree and ancestors project, all you do is go to map page > add a page > put your last name in the box, and select empty (only the title), if its a new last name i will have the information in less than 5hrs free, since this is a open source project of the Automativox Computer Company....

I agree. The more I learn the more fascinated I become. It is interesting to see the the how and why my ancestors came to America. Likewise, I am particularly interested in their country of origin.

Yes, and, if you have an unusual surname, type it into the Google search box and see what comes up - fascinating

Lucky you. I wish I could trace my ancestors. We don't know who either of my grandfathers were. I guess it's intriguing, but also frustrating.

It's a great hobby and a way of understanding your own roots as well.

One of my favorite things about doing genealogy is when I find distant relatives and strike up friendships with them! It is wonderful!
