A rewarding hobby that connects you with your past.
Im looking to start a family tree. I’ve never done it before butreally want to start now. Part of my families origins are in Mexico and maybe some ancestors in Spain. Any ways (books, websites, places, etc.) that i can trace my families roots far far back. Please help and suggesstions are welcome..really want to get this started. Thankyou!
I wantot get my CDIB card and i cant figure out where to start. I went on a site offering to find my ancestors on the Dawes roll but you have to have a surname to search and i dont know how to find the surname its self. SOmeone please help!
I see a lot of websites with ancestor searching but I don’t even know who to search. I am looking for a site that can find my ancestors through records. Free would also be nice
Have there been wars or work exchanges between the cultures? I am doing genelogy research and I am looking for historical information. This ancestry could date back hundreds of years possibly more.
I’d appreciate links, references to books for further reading.
Perhaps I have worded the question poorly, I am fine with Thai being in the mix-I am also part Hispanic. My ancestors seem to have "forgotten" anything but German ancestry or it wasn’t that important to them.
I am interested in finding how two cultures from far away lands have come together. I have researched and found very few answers.
I know the Thai mix would be prior to the 1800’s.
It sounds like know the occupations dating further back could help me pinpoint.
If it helps Indian Singapore is also listed but at it’s lower in percentage.
I thought Singapore is part of Thailand.
We can assume any traveling or intermarriage took place prior to 1800 probably we could be talking 1700 this is at least 7-8 generations ago
I have to do a project for school, and we have to find our ancestors and all that stuff for a project. Any sites that i can use that will help me find the past?
When you want to know more about your ancestors, then building a family tree is a great way to get those answers.
I am fortunate that I have more than one relative who is fascinated by genealogy. Some of my aunts have been studying public records and building our family tree for several decades now. Thanks to all of their hard work I can look back over many generations of my predecessors to see where my family came from and how they came to be in North America.
There are many public records available to you that can help you begin to build your family tree. Searching through birth, death, and marriage records are a great place to start your quest. You may even think about trying one of the many web sites online that can help you build your family tree. Ancestry.com is one of the most popular sites for this particular purpose. An added bonus of using these online genealogy websites is that you may be surprised to find out that somebody else is already out there building your genealogy tree for you!
A family history web site like Ancestry.com are used by millions of people trying to build their own personal family tree. They also contain an endless amount of records such as birth, marriage and death records that you can search through to see if your ancestors are included. You may even be lucky enough to find a detailed family tree out there, already completed, with your name on it.
Another option that you have at Ancestry.com is that you can even have DNA ancestry testing done that can help you find genetic cousins and expand your family tree. Their paternal and maternal DNA lineage tests will provide you with your ancient ancestry and your own collection of personal genetic markers which can be used to connect with genetic cousins.
Just knowing who you are and where you came from can be an amazing gift. Many people simply do not know who their ancestors are and are unable to put together a complete ancestral history for themselves. Knowing where your family came from and where their ancestors lived before can open up a whole new world for you.
We are fortunate to live in an amazing age of technology in which so much information is readily available for our use. Hopefully, we can take advantage of this fact and use it to gain a better sense of who we really are.
