Q1: Have you tried to trace your ancestry? If so, how (using a tool like Ancestry, 23andme)? #CultureTrav

A1: Yes! My parents and I did an https://t.co/Ag1KcBAmZh test. My results are not very surprising, but it was interesting to see small Swedish and Norwegian roots. ;) #CultureTrav

A1: Yes, I did lots of ancestry research at libraries when I was much younger, and last year did the @ancestrydna test. #CultureTrav

A1 Absolutely. I have done a ton of research both online and in person. I'm on all the genealogy sites and groups. So interesting. #culturetrav

A1. My parents have done a lot of work on our family tree using several sites and info from extended family/friends. We don't know much about Chris's ancestry though. #culturetrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A1: Not yet but I plan to. I actually know quite a bit about my ancestry back to some of my great-great grandparents from talking to family members. I find family history fascinating 😊 #CultureTrav

#CultureTrav A1: my uncle has, over the last 30 years, spent a while tracing his family tree. He's finding it much easier now in the days of sites like ancestry.

A1: I have! As a surprise for my Grandparent's 50th anniversary I did a 100 page scrapbook, and worked to trace our lines. I was able to gift my grandmother with history she never had before thanks to https://t.co/0eywVoDg3a #culturetrav

A1: I have considered it many times, but not with too much determination. Living in a former colony such as South Africa with so much cultural diversity it should be interesting. #culturetrav

A1 No I haven't but I have a general idea and my father has traces his side #culturetrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A1 I've not only traced my own family history, I've been a professional genealogist for several years (though currently taking a break to travel). To fully trace your ancestry you typically need to include offline records. #CultureTrav

replying to @brianmayroam
@brianmayroam A1: I have! Considering I’ve only used Ancestry when they have free access weekends, I’ve gotten back a decent amount. So far have traced the Bryant surname to 1808 in Maine and learned a LOT about my heritage.
Surprisingly little Irish!

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A1. We have a photo from Kinlochrannic (so?) in Scotland from @ 1870 and letters back @ 1830. My oldest bro did the ancestry DNA thing and confirmed all stories we’d heard were true. 😀 He could have saved $$ and just believed 🤣🤣🤣 #CultureTrav

A1 My grandfather tried doing the family tree before he died. He found a lot of distant relatives, even some in South Africa. But got a few generations back. #culturetrav
