(no this is not Ireland!)

For the past month, I’ve been in Ireland learning about my husband’s ancestry. The posts you have received during this time I wrote before my trip and scheduled their publication dates while I was away and unable to blog. Soon I’ll be back at my desk, researching our fascinating family and posting stories from our ancestral archives. But for now, here are a few fun genealogy quotes to brighten your day …

 

 

“Moment of Truth for a genealogist: discovering you are your own cousin.” ~ unknown

“If you don’t know who the family black sheep is, it’s probably you.” ~ unknown

“Do you know where your great grandparents are?” ~ unknown

“If you shake your family tree, watch for the nuts to fall.” ~ unknown

“Genealogy is all about chasing your own tale.” ~ unknown

“Genealogy: In the end, it’s all relative.” ~ unknown

OK – enough with the bad puns! See you all soon on The Genetti Family Genealogy Blog!

“If you could see your ancestors all standing in a row, would you be proud of them or not? Or don’t you really know? But here’s another question which requires a different view – if you could meet your ancestors, would they be proud of you?” ~ Nellie Winslow Simmons Randall
