Doing family tree research is a widespread activity among old and young alike. It is a very popular activity that has moved to the internet for action. Each person tracks their ancestry for different reasons. You can check out my Squidoo lens for insight on why my mother began her search for long-lost relatives.

How about the geneology of famous stars such as Bing Crosby or Audry Hepburn? One historian took it upon herself to research the personal ancestry of each of these famous Hollywood stars and published it. What is really neat is that you can piggyback off of the research for others, so often you don't have to start from scratch. You just simply begin where the last person left off in their research and hunt! Some people are just interested in their lineage as a casual interest and some like to brag about the people in their family tree. What is your interest? Are you just wondering what famous President lies in your past or whose genes are running through your blood and those of your children's? How exciting is that?

Did you know that so many people are interested in their family tree research that they have dug up thousands of photos and uploaded them to the internet so that when you search you may come up with a name and a photo. How wonderful! Even if the particular person's photo doesn't download, you may be fortunate enough to see a scene that your great-great-grandfather witnessed or a photo of the house in which he grew up. And then you can experience the fun of digging up all the rest and tell the world that you did!
