I was never to keen on Family History until I was told a story about my Great granddad, about him fighting on d-day, among side the black watch.
When I was told the story, I wanted to find out some more. So in April this year. I started my family tree. I was interested in his family line. During my search i found my Grandma's cousin in Canada. Now writing to each other. I've found 2 more relations. One from America and one from Scotland.
My American relative was also in search for what I was so she boosted my family line up to the 1600's, She also managed to show be the grave sight of my gtx5 and 6 granddad.
I'm now trying to get my family tree done for my surname.

The way I did my mothers family it should be soon.
