I’m looking forward to this. My reasons are heavy ones but I will say that all of my genealogy research has answered several emotional/relation questions (while opening more!) that have “played forward” thru to today to us. Had I known then what I know now, I might’ve had more compassion for others.

Genealogy provides such a good perspective on history, society and things in general. I learned a lot about my dad who died when I was young thru research. I’m also addicted to the problem solving aspect of it which I why I go down rabbit holes … a lot just to resolve them.

That’s how I feel about it as well. I also get a kick out of others’ genealogy as well.

I have no doubt there are lots of us out there. It is so good for understanding family patterns, or where certain behaviours/attitudes might have been acquired and why.
