[quote=Anonymous]One side of my family we can get back to to the 1750s. Another side stops cold in 1910 or so- it’s like they didn’t exist before Ellis Island. My DH’s family is from Asia and has nothing before his grandparents; any evidence of their heritage let alone desire to look backwards basically disappeared with World War II. My dad (whose side is the one with extensive records) was really into genealogy and he saw it as both validation and a way to leave a legacy, and I used to share his anxiety about finding all of our family records. Marrying into a family with such little recorded history made me care a lot less about the whole thing and it’s a relief.[/quote]
