Genealogy study....where present meets the past...

Since I have some free time on my hands I decided to start a genealogy study of my family. Oy veh, what a task! The easy part was getting into one of the genealogy websites to start building a family tree. The hard part is to try and locate your ancestors without having to have a seance with a spriritualist in attendance, or digging in the old family trunk, or calling Ghostbusters...somehow I don't think Bill Murray will be much help to me right about now.
