Geneology, scrapbooking and vlogging are all about sitting down and preserving/discovering/creating your personal history.

Wow weird. I have ... Wow weird. I have only my mom, dad, and 11 yr older half brother as well. Mine went? to the Navy though not college. :)
Yeh Sweden, I'm in ... Yeh Sweden, I'm in Sweden! It's a bridge that? connects Denmark to Sweden. You can take the train or drive over. Come visit :) Midsommar is coming soon and is a great time to visit. Let me know if there is any help I can give you on Sweden.
Yes I want to get ... Yes I want to get to get to all the countries I have ancestors from,? I have already been to England. I am going Study in Ireland in three weeks, so I still need to go to Italy and Russia. Yep, I am a classic American mutt! lol
Who do you think ... Who do you think you Are? Was actually a UK show before being a US show for years! You can actually watch some of their shows on youtube. I love the show, I have watched the last 2 seasons. It inspired me to do my own research.I am just a normal small town girl in upstate NY. I found out I am related to Giles Corey who was killed in the Salem Witch trails and a Duke from Ireland. I did a lot? research on ancestry, other relatives research as well! on to make sure everything was valid.
hahaha i totally ... hahaha i totally looked at this video? because i wanted to yell at people who were mean to you lol :)
I've been able to ... I've been able to trace back to my great great grandparents so far. I'm "Black" American so after a while it gets kind of...depressing to find some were charted as "mulatto" or along with property. :-/ Fortunately though I have a FEW great uncles and aunts(if that's what you call your grandparents' siblings) to tell me things and show me? pictures. I'm part of a melting pot so even if I could trace past the boat my genes would lead to a few places that I may never actually know...BUT here we are.
hahaha theres a cop ... hahaha theres a cop behind? youuuuu! LMAO!!!!!!! Dont get nervous hun He He!!!! <3
that is why i tell ... that is why i tell my 13 year? daugher that we are blessed that she is even here. i have been pregnant 7 times, and she is the one that made it.
I LOVE that show! I ... I LOVE that show! I THINK its on NBC. I think its a lot of fun, i really liked the Kim Catrell episode, her family history was crazy interesting! Plus my parents knew her mom from living in the same town in Canada, so it was cool for us to watch :)?
I'm a total ... I'm a total Genealogy buff, it's just so neat to find out stuff. I can trace my maternal grandfather's family back centuries. my maternal grandmother's family is? from Poland, so it's a bit trickier. My dad's side is very tight-lipped about family and stuff, so it's hard to find out [Because, you actually need to know a lot before you can find out a lot, those ancestry.com leaves aren't always right] I haven't watched it here in the US, but I've seen the original UK version of the show.
glad you had fun at ... glad you had fun at your moms bday!
very interesting stuff!?
My dad goes ... My dad goes Geneolgy and has our family mapped back for years upon years. It is something he wants to make sure he leaves us kids. And I think it is wonderful and so? interesting. He recently found out that a past grandmother actually did some of the work on the queens wedding dress , so that was interesting in the past week with the royal wedding. Interesting , Interesting :)
Great video hun!? Great video hun!?
i wish there was a ... i wish there was a company that? did this too
I started ... I started researching my family tree when i was 14. I'm so glad I did. I have recordings of my grandparents talking about their families, who have all since passed away.?
im 100%? pure breed ... im 100%? pure breed English :)
We watch that show ... We watch that show on occasion. My hubby is really into Ancestry.com too. On there often loomking at? the old records as well. Its definately interesting stuff. :)
Awww you totally ... Awww you totally made me cry about the whole Mothers day issue.. UGH...
I do watch Who do you think you are and I? LOVE IT!!!!
I have done just the free Anstrey.com one. I did find out alot just doing the free one.
I've seen? an ... I've seen? an episode of that show. Very interesting. =) My maternal grandfather's side of the family is really heavy into geneology and mapping the family tree. My maternal grandmother's side however...it's like a big mystery or secret. I think that's a family tree we want to spray Roundup on as certain family members were known to have made "deathbed confessions." O_O lol
Honestly I haven't ... Honestly I haven't really dug too deep into my family history. My father was born in Greece, so I'm aware of my paternal side,? but know very little about my maternal side.
We have 'who do you ... We have 'who do you think you are' in the UK. Love that programme :) and unfortunately I don't know enough about my family history!?
I do all of the ... I do all of the above. Yes I do want to go to? Ireland! I love the tour idea. My mom does all of our ancestry and its so awesome to hear the stories.
I watch that show ... I watch that show too..And ever since i seen the first one, i traced our? family too...I am still looking for some of it... Like you Our family really didn't get together with the other parts of the family...So now i am tracing it back... its really cool...
I come from Iceland ... I come from Iceland and there we have a website where everybody can track their family tree many generations back. We can also put in another persons name and see how we are related. Now I am in Sweden and I can see that there is big interest in finding family but they don't really have the system like we do. It is so interesting to find? relatives!
Their is a company ... Their is a company you can have trace your geneology by using your dna. It is really interesting. They previewed this company on the the show on PBS called "Faces of America." The can actually tell what ethnicity you actually have more off just from your dna. You can find it on the first season of this show but,? I am not sure what episode.
Love that show, ... Love that show, incredibly interesting. I'm lucky enough to have both sides of my family history well documented: names, dates, countries etc. Love that we have that information, helps me feel connected to my? ancestors. My husbands family is Finnish. All of the 3rd, 4th and so on cousins still live there. In fact his cousin was on the Olympic Finnish women's team, they took Bronze in the last Olympics. :) And yes, I would totally take a tour of my family tree.
Wow that is so cool ... Wow that is so cool that you have Swedish ancestors. I lived there for a couple of years. My husband and I live in Norway and visit Sweden often. Let me know if you? guys are planning to visit this side of the world :) Wish we got this show here in Norway...
hahah, I totally? ... hahah, I totally? thought you were talking about a hater. LOL Then when I started talking I realized you are calm and collected. LOL
BUT , I am half irish and American. My family was from Ireland and we had a different last name before my great-great grandparents came to America, they changed our name once they moved here. My dad told me that about a year ago. Pretty cool.
My mother's father ... My mother's father is Hawaiian and? had 7 brothers and sisters! I have a huge hawaiian family and I know alot about my family history
One of my hobbys? ... One of my hobbys? is Geneology and working on my family tree! Love this vlog!
