Who Else Wonders?

So who is fascinated by their family history? Or by their ancestry and how they lived in other words.

Yeah. My G-G- grandfather was born in Tennessee and is buried in an unmarked grave about 15-20 miles from here(in Alabama). As near as I can figure all his siblings as well as his father ended up buried in Texas.

One of the odd things I recently learned is that GG grandpa bought land that had belonged to one of his brothers in Tennessee ( the brother was already living in Texas) about 1866. I'm not sure if he had planned to move back and never got around to it, or he just got it for a good price and resold it. I'm not sure what happened to that land, my best guess is that some of the family in Tennessee ended up with it.
