The echoes of our ancestors resonate within us. Their voices, beliefs, cultures, choices, experiences, and traditions still influence the people that we are today. We carry their physical traits in our DNA, display some of their talents, and carry forward their occupations, religions, and associations. The choices our ancestors made—including their decisions to migrate and where to settle—bring their heritage and sense of community forward. Each of their unique experiences shaped their lives and reverberate in us.
The study of family history gives greater meaning and dimension to our lives. As the prior generations fade from view, our research work illuminates the pale echoes of the past and brings our ancestors back to life for future generations.
