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.

Here are a couple more quotes: "In all of us there is a hunger, marrow deep, to know our heritage - to know who we are and where we came from.

Looking at people who belong to us, we see the past, present and future." -- Gail Lumet Buckley You live as long as you are remembered. -- Russian proverb I like these though: The past is a source of knowledge, and the future is a source of hope.
