Yes, I have a different hobby,

By the way, Genealogy, is the tracing of your ancestry

Sounds interesting but I don't know what I could trace my family with. There aren't many good resources for that at least that I know

Thanks for the links Bob.

My family, on my Dad's side, came to America in 1736 (40 years before the US became a country).

One of my more notable ancestors is Johnny Appleseed.

Yes, I'm into that too sadly I don't have the money or ethic to spend that much time doing it.

Genealogy is cool. In my social studies class back in middle school we learned about genealogy and did research on our ancestors. Like I learned about how my great great great grandpa was a half Mexican/Spaniard bull rider who sucked at bull rider. The weird thing is I'm asian (filipino).. but yeah Genealogy = Cool.
