Genealogy is actually the tracing back of individual's own ancestors. The idea behind genealogy is
that a person traces their ancestors from themselves backwards as far as they can go. There are people who do genealogy or family
history who stick strictly with facts: date of birth, married date, children, and date of death. Others become more
interested in knowing what went on in the time that a particular ancestor lived and try to actually get more of a feeling
of knowing that person. Right now, genealogy happens to be one of the fastest growing hobbies. People have become very
interested in their own family history and also in the age their grandparents or great grandparents lived.
In the days of our grandparents and great grandparents, families relatively often lived in one local area. They lived
and died within just a few miles, but nowadays you don't usually have a family that is clustered together so you don't have
a large extended family close by. Most people move several times during their lives and often live in a city where they have
no relatives. As we all age, we become more interested in who we are and where we came from and that is what genealogy
is about.
If you want to trace your roots, the best place to start is to search for your ancestors on the Internet.
There are hundreds of credible online databases that store genealogical information, like the Ellis Island immigration
database and the famous Family History Library. But who has time to search them all? Here at Familyhistoryreport.com our genealogist(s)

We at Familyhistoryreport.com have been involved in genealogical research for 8 years. In the time
I have spent researching my own personal families history I have found a profoundly significant amount of information.
I have been able to trace my personal families history back to countries such as England, Austria, and France as far back
as the year 1620 when he fled Mornac, France to escape religious persecution. You can read about Ambroise
in "Ambroise the Huguenot" by Esther Secor Cleveland
I have also been able to track back to John Hiatt;born 1674 Glastonbury, Somersetshire, England. Died
abt. 1761 Frederick,County, Virginia (one source says 1726 Bucks Co., Pennsylvania) probably buried 1761
Opequon Church Cemetary, Frederick County, Virginia. More can be read about the Hiatt/Hiett Family Genealogy in William Perry
