One tradition I have is, on Christmas morning I wake up and drink hot chocolate and watch a Christmas movie to wait for everybody to wake up. Another tradition is while opening gifts we play loud Christmas music and eat cookies, and, my sister I play our 3DS and wait for people to come over. On Christmas weekend I usually leave to go to my grandparent’s house until Christmas morning, and that got me wondering, I wonder what my other grandma would say if I got a BB gun for a present.

The turn of the 20th century was a time of great optimism and anxiety ("1900: A Year in the Life of America." - Genealogy.com. N.p., n.d. Web. 06 Aug. 2015.). There were constant advancements in technology and new products being made all the time, making life much easier ("1900: A Year in the Life of America." - Genealogy.com. N.p., n.d. Web. 06 Aug. 2015.). This better life attracted immigrants from all over ("1900: A Year in the Life of America." - Genealogy.com. N.p., n.d. Web. 06 Aug. 2015.). Sadly, for many of them as well as natives, the only work they could get was mediocre with poor working conditions, long hours, and small paychecks ("1900: A Year in the Life of America." - Genealogy.com. N.p., n.d. Web. 06 Aug. 2015.). The same can be said for the Nolan family from “A Tree Grows in Brooklyn”. Francie Nolan, an Irish-American girl growing up in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, doesn’t let her family’s poverty drag her down ("Analysis of Major Characters." SparkNotes. SparkNotes, n.d.

As color is more than an artists’ statement when it comes to heredity. We set some colors to have more value than others. As if the rainbow was a key to a hierarchy for our society to follow. All people are equal. Every man despite genealogy is genetically beautifully equal in our species. Race, ethnicity, religion, disability all factors included; are simply part of making us all unique.

The Tri State Genealogical Society was (Society) first organized in August of 1976, and reorganized again in 1985, states its purpose to be:

The word migration can have a very different meaning to each individual. In the dictionary it is defined as the movement of people from one country or locality to another. I now see the word with such a deeper meaning no only is it the group of people moving, but in fact how they moved and the struggles they had to go through. Before I sat down with both of my parent and asked them about my “roots” I had no idea how difficult migration from Mexico to the US was for both of my parents families. I never took the time to listen to little details on how exactly they ended up in this country. After I took the time to listen to my elder relatives and parents talk about how they use to

History is defined as the study of the science of humanity in the past. It's a broad subject that spans over countless people groups throughout the years that the world has been around. Even before the times we have written word history was still being made, and it is still extremely important. We tend to forget that in our average day to day lives we are still making history. That all over the globe everyone is taking part in what might be in a history book someday.

Genealogy Started historically, in Western societies the focus of genealogy was on the kinship and descent of rulers and nobles, often arguing or demonstrating the legitimacy of claims to wealth and power. The term often overlapped with heraldry, in which the ancestry of royalty was reflected in their coats of arms. Genealogical research in the United States was first systematized in the early 19th century, especially by John Farmer (1789–1838). In modern times, genealogy became more widespread, with commoners as well as nobility researching and maintaining their family trees. Genealogy received a boost in the late 1970s with the television broadcast of Roots: The Saga of an American Family, Alex Haley's account of his family

The Thanksgiving of my seventh grade year is the most memorable to me as it was in those five days my cousin Michael and I grew closer than we ever had before. My cousins and I would race our Grandfather’s golf cart against his neighbor’s cart in the streets past dark so that we could not be seen by my Grandfather. The shared adrenaline rush we would get speeding by the river bonded us and created a mutual understanding between us, that sometimes kids need to release energy and let loose. Our mutual escape from the lull of a proper Friday night dinner let us see the real sides of one another. Due to my last time seeing Michael was fifth grade, things had changed in the both of us, and those fifteen minutes of rebellion let us show each other who we had become. Sometimes I look back on this moment when I miss my family, as it was a time where all the cousins joined together regardless of our ages. I have not seen Michael since then, as it is hard for my aunt and uncle to get time off to visit from Florida. I sometimes wonder what Michael is like now, and look forward to our next fifteen minutes of rebellion at a friday night dinner. Missing Michael has taught me the value of family, and how one person can change your whole

Have you ever wondered where your ancestors came from? Where your family started? Through preservation of your genealogy, you can put those wonders to rest. Genealogy is the study of tracing the roots of your ancestors. People do not realize the importance of preserving their family history, because it never concerns them. Geretta Saunders understands this importance, because she wrote to Ancestory.com about her journey on finding her lost soldier. Her and her husband started their ancestral research in 1997, but they could not find the name of her husband's great-great-grandfather; all they knew was that he was a civil war soldier that never came home after the war. During their search, they found his name on a marriage certificate with his

Family history is very important to an individual. By knowing where you come from, you can have a better perspective of your life. Having a clear understanding of your family background allows you to better appreciate the things that you would normally take for granted. The house, the car, and the average clothing may look better when one sees the sacrifices their family has made. They will see that their family has worked very hard just so their family can experience the better things in life. A persons roots and origin is one of the most important things to explore. It alone can bring you closer to self-discovery.
