Finding your roots can be addictive!

I had a few minutes tonight while I waited for my Peruvian student to show up online, so I started looking for family records on ancestry.com.  It's an hour and 45 minutes later and I finally closed the search windows!  (My student must have forgotten our appointment.)

You can find cool things like military registration cards with signatures of your relatives.  Doesn't seeing the signature make him seem more real?

In addition to the paid site, ancestry.com, you can also go to the FREE site http://www.familysearch.org.  Lots of great information on both sites.
