Time Travel: Genealogy


I have been slightly interested in genealogy for awhile now, and occasionally do a little bit of work on the topic of my ancestry. I've discovered that it is amazing just how much information is now available online, which makes it fairly easy to dig stuff up for someone like myself, who is interested, but not that interested in tracing their ancestors. Therefore much of the information herein comes from the Internet. Other information came from family sources, and even some of that was gathered by means of the Internet, thanks to email.

While I have not reproduced, my brother has. The existence of a next generation, in the person of my niece, inspired me to try to put together the information I have collected over the years.

 

Frank Walter Chism

My brother and Fiona's father, and I decided he deserved a section of his own.

And, of course, there is the ego-centric approach, where I appear as a kind of culmination of descent.

It's always nice to see a family tree as an image. Here are several different approaches to that.

I find that I have things to say about genealogy, both as to what I've done, and how I've done it, and things that I've started to think about as a result of my new knowledge.
