My mom died 2 years ago and asked me to archive the family history items she had collected over the years. Photos, documents, personal items. Once I realized how much she had, I felt it was time to investigate the family genealogy. Two years and I'm still finding surprises every day. I have traced direct ancestors to countless English Knights, Dukes, Earls, Counts, and Kings including Kings of France, 3 Holy Roman Emperors including Charlemagne, Vikings too, including Rollo Duke of Normandy.
