all traces will be forgotten when the people who knew you (rather than knew of you) have gone also.
All that would be left for even the most revered or reviled persons would be history books.
And like the bible storybook, the history of an individual will be sanitised to only show the good (or only the bad) points of someones life - it would not show the true 'you' .

Unless someone is an avid family historian and starts to look up your birth, marriage and death certificates, then yes, no doubt all traces of you will be forgotten.

Depends on who you were and what you did.
The Queen and Bill Gates will probably be remembered for a long time.
You and I won't!

i hope not-i would like to think i will do or achieve something in my life which is good enough to be remembered in the future. or have children and grandchildren who will continue to tell their children what i did in the world with my time!

traces of you will only remain if there is anyone left to remember you, sad but true.

might be an old photo left around somewhere. and there are always official documents like the census and of course your gravestone. your d.n.a will survive in your grand children and great gran-children so a bit of you will be around
