On the Titanic
I am into genealogy, and have found a lot of very interesting stories about my ancestors. I also like to walk the cemeteries and take pictures of the headstones to help others who are looking for their ancestors.

I admit my genealogy work has taken a back seat to my chickens and turkeys. They come first.
 
I'm also into genealogy in a BIG way, although now, with chickens, ducks and geese, plus very untamed flower beds, it turns into more of a wintertime passion.

I'm a subscriber to Ancestry.com. The 1-yr subscription to EVERYTHING they have is about $300, but I've found lots of great stuff there.

I'm a member of Find A Grave. I don't like to pay for anything, if I don't have to. Find A Grave is free, and they have a forum where you might be able to find information about your ancestors. There are a couple of other websites that I have gone to. I can't remember them off the top of my head, as I haven't been to those sites for awhile.
 
another good site is rootsweb and its free, also the familysearch.org site has alot of info... maybe we should list some of the surnames we are researching? for me its rusk, mckay, sullivan, larison, mendell to mention a few
 
I love it! Researching my family history has been a fun experience, and in some cases headache causing! But you do find out some interesting stuff about some of your ancestors!
 
Hubby & I are having a ball on Ancestry.com. I found out that I am related to Ann Boleyn (wife of King Henry VIII) and Lady Godiva (who married King Leofric). So far I have researched my family back to the 600's! Not the 1600's, the 600's! How cool is that?
