Oh my word. I've had a truly amazing time on here today. I started nearly twelve hours ago on my Eadie side, stopping only to feed and water the family. |

It was just humour. No life story required ;-) But nice as it is, I don't think there are connections between the artistic abilities of ancestors and us in the present unless it's something that has been encouraged down through the generations.. I play instruments and sing which I could attribute to my Welsh side (Oh the voices of the valleys!) but I don't. |

I think you have an unhealthy obsession with money and higher connections. Most of us hope to find something 'better' in our past as though it would reflect on us and make us 'better' people, but really we should be looking for something 'better' in our own futures. The past is interesting but just because my greatgrandfather worked with gold doesn't mean my mother's obsession with the stuff is inherited, it just means she's a greedy pikey. :-D |

genealogy starts out as a hobby.......... takes over our lives...... turns into an obsession........... then a disease! |

I can't explain it but I have become fascinated by a line of my late mil's. I have no idea why but I feel drawn to them. |
