End of the line I spose

Up til now, I’d never known any family history back further than the mid 1800s on my father’s side. In 15 minutes, I could trace my mom’s side back to England totally for free. LOL now I have to dig some more. I only made it to the mid 1500s. One assumes the records are sketchy when it starts saying the mother was 5 years old. I don’t think things were [i]quite[/i] that different back then. 😂 it is neat to get back far enough where you start seeing the spelling variations from the lack of standardization though. Stuff is so cool. The last one I found was Nicholas Reede. From Nik to Nick! 😄
