 If you are like me and you work hours putting your family information on your computer you don't want to lose it. You need to back ever thing you have on to CDs and to a pyn 8 Gbs that you can keep with you.

Genealogy : Maps of your family Roots

  I like to know  more about where my ancestors came from on a map. Yes you can learn more about your family by tracing where they lived on a map. My Ancestors came from England and landed in Salem Mass. in 1635 and in 1680 some of them moved to New Jersey ,and then after the War with England in 1780 some of them moved to Virginia and into Tennessee and then in 1804 some of them moved in to Ohio. then in 1826 some of them moved in to Indiana.

   If you read the history of your ancestors and you put the routs of their journeys on maps you will get a better understanding of how your ancestors had to live day by day.

Genealogy : If you can't find a Ancestor don't give up Hope.

I had one Ancestor and his Wife and two sons that I could not find after 1880 .
My G-Grand father Dr. Thomas Antrim  had a large farm in Jasper County Indaina. That he gave a share to each of his Children in 1880 . But only one son said that he would stay and work the farm all the other children said that they would sell their share of the farm so the son that stayed on the farm bought the shares of his Sisters and Brothers.

My Grandfather and his sisters and brothers that sold their shares of the farm moved to Towns in and around Jasper county, Indiana. all but one he and his family dropped out of site.

I started doing genealogy in 1994 and It only took me about a year to check where my father and Grandfather lived in Indiana. I also found where the family farm was.

  I hit a brick wall when I tried to find my G-Uncle Mahlon Francis Antrim and his Wife Marie and their two sons Mahlon Grant and William Francis Antrim , I thought I had looked everwhere for them I checked all of the Genealogy clubs in all of the states I could not find them , so I went to work looking for my other ancestors 8 years later I traced my ancestors back to 1635 Salem Masachusetts.

 One day I was checking my e-mail when I seen this name Mahlon Terry Antrim , He said Mr Antrim I Think My GG grandfather is your Great Uncle Mahlon Francis Antrim . And he was right ,
Mahlon went on to say that my Great Uncle went to Canada to live in 1880.

   I have Family Tree Maker program and a Family Tree Maker Home Page on the internet and that
 is how  Mahlon Terry Antrim from Alberta Canada seen my home page and found out that My Great Uncle and his G-G-grandfather is the same person. So don't give up hope when looking for your ancestors
And with the help of Family Tree Maker we are finding our ancestors.

Genealogy: Your family Surnames

Your last name is your Surname If your a Male you keep it for life If your a female when you get married you exchange it for your husband's last name.

Most people got there last names years ago from the type of work that they did or were they lived or were they came from and some people were named from just about any thing.

 In genealogy your family line you'll find many surnames , for each  marriage you will find the Groom's last name and the Bride's last name , then the father and mother last name of both the Bride and Croom.

 You can find surnames of your family by looking up the Marriage Applications of each marriage in your family.
