A Tree of a Different Color
A few of my older relatives like to brag about their trips to Europe and the family history records they've found their. A great-aunt of mine came back from a trip to Germany with rolls and rolls of pictures of birth and marriage records she had gotten from old church buildings. I have access to those now, not because she took those picture, those pictures are in boxes now. No, I have those records because they are available online. With a few flicks of my fingers I make that same trip to Europe, to Switzerland, to the Czech Republic. It's easy to do genealogy now. I can do it in my pajamas while lying in bed, or on my tablet in class, or with my phone on a bus. Genealogy is like green eggs and ham, you can enjoy it anywhere. Try it, you'll like it.
