Researching ancestry

#1 Postby coriolis » Mon Jul 20, 2009 11:23 am

My parents told me that I was 75% German, with the remaining 25% being a mix of Chech, Swiss, and French. The problem they told me, was that the borders of many of those countries changed frequently so it's not completely right to say that I'm this or that.


I decided to do some research on it and found some interesting information on-line.

I was able to trace my ancestry back much further with these resources.

I found that if you go back far enough, I am 100%.....

I"m sure they're related to me - if you go back far enough.
