I would rather look for dead people than have them looking for me. I'm not sick. I've just got faded genes. I'm stuck in my family tree and can't get down. It's hard to be humble with ancestors like mine.
Life is lived forwards, but understood backwards.
May you ask the right questions of the right person at the right time. Most of my family roots are underground. Only a genealogist regards a step backward as progress. Pruning the family tree is not permitted. So many relatives so little time.
