What is something, you don’t normally tell people, that your family is known for?

Very cool. The royalty of Europe are kind of all related, even Prussians and Romanians to English and Germans somehow, from what I can recollect

honestly i have no idea where to go to get my lineage traced
the only other thing i know is that one of my ancestors was brought over from england to the 13 colonies to fight in the revolution because he was a sharpshooter, dont know what side he fought for though

>in the future
i could see a point in the future that they were released, but it would have to be for the benefit of the country and not specific groups. We aren't racist people. If we gave them to academics they'd just be destroyed. My grandfather almost gave them to the Mormons in the 70's for their geneology project, but they more or less indicated the source of slaves would be omitted if publicized.

Grandma can tell me of the Ukrainians and Polish genocide but has zero recollection of jews being killed.

ehhh, no, I am just generally interested because I know I’m not the only one with interesting family history and I don’t have the heart to get into mutliple serous relationships with people solely for learning more about history

My grandfather was a regional leader of an area between two countries, don't know much about him other than he was apparently brutal, and that my dad says I remind him of his father sometimes. (Not in a good way)

i wasn't joking, but since this country is small and young, if i give any details i can be doxxed easily

I agree, user. My family on the other side were like this racist Mennonite group in Sweden that got exiled from Germany, and I’m not sure what else happened but I think they were exiled here in the 20th century or so. I have a mirror that survived a house fire.
Do you mind if I ask what she says? Or has told you,

I am the great great grandson of Dwight D. Eisenhower from my mother's side.
