From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Genealogy (from Greek: γενεά, genea, "generation"; and λόγος, logos, "knowledge") is the study of families and the tracing of their lineages and history. Genealogists use oral traditions, historical records, genetic analysis, and other records to obtain information about a family and to demonstrate kinship and pedigrees of its members. The results are often displayed in charts or written as narratives. The pursuit of family history tends to be shaped by several motivations, including the desire to carve out a place for one's family in the larger historical picture, a sense of responsibility to preserve the past for future generations, and a sense of self-satisfaction in accurate storytelling. Some scholars differentiate between genealogy and family history, limiting genealogy to an account of kinship, while using "family history" to denote the provision of additional details about lives and historical context.

My maiden name is very unusual and my father really doesn't no much about his family, so I would love to know where we originate from.

The best meal in town isn't at Denny's, and the best way to explore your family history isn't cheap. Don't they teach you youngsters anything in school any more?

Q. I have found a lot of programs that help make the usual family tree chart, however I can't seem to find any that will make a reverse genealogy chart. (Starting with the oldest couple in the family and then going forwards to include their children, and children's children, etc.) Does anyone know of a program that will do this? Asked by Mira - Tue May 12 22:41:15 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. I have a program called Roots that will print the report from the oldest to the youngest. However, I don't know if they make that program for Windows. Most of the programs ought to run a report for descendants as well as ancestors.
