How many times have you heard someone in your family tell stories about olden days and about your ancestors' lives that are inconceivable to imagine and you wondered if those stories were true? If you are curious to research those stories - your ancestors - sometimes, you may find many embellishments to those stories. Sometimes, you will run into dead-ends, and then, as in my case, you will find the family stories told over and over are just the beginning of a tale. When you research, if you research your ancestors, as I did maybe you too will find the "tale" is a wonderful saga, which may explain why you are who you are and the characters of it are your ancestors.
