My family tree is a few branches short! Help appreciated My ancestors must be in a witness protection program! Shake your family tree and watch the nuts fall! My hobby is genealogy, and I raise dust bunnies as pets. How can one ancestor cause so much TROUBLE?? I looked into my family tree and found out I was a sap.. I'm not stuck, I'm ancestrally challenged I'm searching for myself; Have you seen me ? If only people came with pull-down menus and on-line help... Isn't genealogy fun? The answer to one problems, leads to two more! It's 1998. Do you know where your-Great-G. Grandparents are? A family reunion is an effective form of birth control A family tree can wither if nobody tends it's roots A new cousin a day keeps the boredom away After 30 days, unclaimed ancestors will be adopted Am I the only person up my tree-seems like it Any family tree produces some lemons, nuts & a few bad apples Ever find an ancestor HANGING from the family tree? FLOOR: The place for storing your priceless genealogy records. Gene-Allergy-It's a contagious disease, but I love it Genealogists are time unravelers Genealogy is like Hide & Seek: They Hide & I Seek! Genealogy: Tracing yourself back to better people "Crazy" is a relative term in my family A miser is hard to live with, but makes a fine ancestor I want to find ALL of them! So far I only have a few thousand I Should have asked them BEFORE they died! I think my ancestors had several "Bad heir" days I'm always late. My ancestors arrived on the JUNEflower Only a Genealogist regards a step backwards, as progress Share your knowledge, it is a way to achieve immortality Heredity:Everyone believes in it until their children act like fools! It's a poor family that hath neither a Lady of the evening or a thief. Many a family tree needs trimming. Shh! Be very, very quiet.... I'm hunting forebears. Snobs talk as if they had begotten their own ancestors! That's strange: half my ancestors are WOMEN! I'm not sick, I've just got fading genes Genealogists live in the past lane Genealogists do it generation after generation.... Cousins marrying cousins: Very tangled roots! Cousins marrying cousins: A non-branching family tree Alright! Everybody out of the gene pool! Do I hear the rattle of Chains? Always willing to share my ignorance.... Documentation...The hardest part of genealogy For a reply, send a self-abused, stomped elephant to... Genealogy: Chasing your own tale! Genealogy-will I ever find time to mow the lawn again? That's the problem with the gene pool: NO Lifeguards I looked up my family tree...there were two dogs using it. I researched my family tree......apparently I don't exist!
