Looking for My Ancestors...

I've been curious about my ancestors for awhile now, but knew it would be alot of time and energy and didn't have much of that, until now. What really got me going was the new show "Who Do You Think You Are" . If you haven't seen it, each week they focus on one famous person, last night it was 'Tim McGraw" They always find some really interesting fact about their lives, people they are related to that had a huge impact of people's lives etc.


I started with Ancestry.com It is not very cheap to join, about $150 for the year, but i think it will be worth it.  You can use their web-site to start making your own family tree, but once you start searching their files you have to join but the good part is they have a free 30 trial, so you can see if you like it or not.


I got some new information about my grandmother last night and just googled her full name and was lucky enough to come across a page someone else had posted that had the entire family tree to my fathers mother, all the way back to 1830! I not only want to find out names and birthdates, but what they did for a living, where they lived, etc. 


I then went to Ancestry.com and put more information into my tree that i got from the earlier googled page,  turns out i found 5 other people searching our family tree, not sure who they are yet, but i found enough to keep me going..... My great-Grandmothers picture!
