GENEALOGY – the study and search of direct-line ancestors (parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, etc.) using birth, marriage, and death records to prove relationships and ancestral lineage. Genealogy is the Who, Where, and When.
FAMILY HISTORY – the study of people, places, stories, and traditions that put our ancestors into time and place using historical records, newspapers, maps, and local histories to learn how they lived their lives. Family History is the How and Why.
Walking, I am listening to a deeper way. Suddenly all my ancestors are behind me. "Be still" they say, "Watch and listen. You are the result of the love of thousands."
