A Book for the Curious, Amateur and Serious Genealogists
Learn About Your Past
Are you a genealogist looking for background information? Ancestors are more than just a name and date. History becomes more alive when you realize your ancestors were a part of it.
The author has been investigating into her family tree for over fifty years. She now has researched four key surnames and created extensive grids, biographies and found historical data. Some of her hours of research are included in THE WORLD OF YOUR ANCESTORS - GENERAL INFORMATION - VOLUME 1. This first volume of three is on early life in Europe and the Americas up to the early 1800's. For those curious about life back then and for genealogists who find it exciting readers get a look into what their ancestor's life might have been like.
The bits and pieces of background information presented allow readers a peek into their relative's life challenges. It presents a few of the endless topic areas available and you can select those of interest to you.
Are your ancestors Austrian, British, German or Italian? People living in these four countries have similar experiences as other countries. Were your ancestors Pilgrims, Puritans, Quakers or live in Colonial times? Were they Native American Indians, fur traders or mountain men? If any answer is yes, there is lots of interesting historical information for you.
If you love history or are just curious, here is your chance to satisfy that curiosity and learn something new or may be something you have forgotten.
Information will help you imagine what your ancestor's day-to-day life might have been like. What was their world really like? Who and what events controlled their lives? See what restrictions and freedoms they had. Readers can gain some insight and better understand their world.
You can learn about castles, chores, clothing, crime, diet, education, entertainment, holiday celebrations, homes, leadership, medicine, occupations, religion, transportation and more.
Enjoy a mini tour into the past in THE WORLD OF YOUR ANCESTORS - GENERAL INFORMATION - VOLUME 1 . You will be thinking, I never knew that or I always wondered about that or that's interesting... or that's why...
The author hopes readers continue to explore learning about the real past. There are many first hand accounts, documents and books written in the time period that can be very eye opening into understanding how life really was then vs. how some want to rewrite it now.
