My family tree is all done and complete...
I have it all down on paper...
It is only written out in ink though...
Not set up like a tree form...
My mom and grandmother did it so I have no idea how they did it cause my grandmother is dead now and my mom is in a nursing home with Alzheimer's...
I have no one to ask, I am just glad someone did it for me...
Most of my family is all passed away and I have no one to ask...
I think you can go to ancestry.com, but I do believe you have to sign up or pay something...

WE'VE GOT PARTS OF IT ON "BOTH-SIDES" BUT, ITS HARD ONE SIDE CAME HERE FROM WALES AS INDENTURED SERVANTS(WHITE-SLAVES) LANDED IN CHARLESTON RAN OFF INTO MOUNTAINS, TAKING-UP WITH THE CHEROKEE. BUT, SOMEHOW MANAGED TO KEEP OUR SURNAME. THE OTHER SIDE ABOUT AS BAD, LANDED FARTHER NORTH, MY GREAT GRAND WAS BLACKFOOT SO YOU CAN SEE OUR DILEMMA.
MOST OF OUR HERITAGE WAS KEPT FROM US. OUT OF FEAR, SHAME, YEARS AGO IF YOU HAD NATIVE BLOOD & PASSED YOU KEPT YOUR MOUTH SHUT AND WERE FORBIDDEN TO TALK OF IT. EVEN NOW, MY OWN MOTHER WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE SHE IS 1/4 BLACKFOOT AND OUR FAMILY THROUGH THE YEARS HAVE DESTROYED ANY OLD TIN PHOTO'S ECT. ECT. KIND OF SAD REALLY LOL
I'M NOT SURE ABOUT SITES MOST OF OUR HAVE BEEN PASSED DOWN THROUGH OLD BIBLES, CERTAIN ONES ON BOTH SIDES DID KEEP-UP WITH BIRTHS/DEATHS/MARRIAGES
THERE IS A FAMILY CEMETARY IN A FEW COUNTIES OVER
IT IS KIND OF SPOOKY WHEN THE WHOLE CEMETARY ARE RELATIVES IN ONE WAY OR THE OTHER (WELL OVER 100 BURIALS) OF FAMILY WE BEEN HERE A WHILE!!

We only did it among ourselves and we have a lot of info even though there were many deaths early in life.

my mom tried to do one herself, but she only got as far as her great grandmother, which was my great great grandmother, we have a ton of relatives, why bother
