Anyone have an interesting family tree? The Hungarian side of my family has keep it documented for hunderds of years, as far back that Genghis Khan is listed as my ansestor.
We tried doing one for the Italian side, buy too many records are missing/lost during the war, we could only go back about 6-7 generations.

My father and grandfather did the tree tracing thing -many- years ago, going back to the late 1600's. Apparently one of my Norwegian ancestors was pressed into British Naval service way back when, then jumped ship when they sailed into Boston pre-revolution. That's how my father's side of the family got to America.
I also went to Ellis Island a few years back and typed in my last name on the computer, and saw all the (legal) immigration that happened from Norway, some of whom I might be related to.
