The good thing about genealogy research is that it is getting easier.
Genealogy is the fastest growing hobby today.
More people are looking for their roots than ever before. New software and the internet are contributing to quicker access and more reliable information. The bad thing about genealogy research is that it is very time consuming and requires a great deal of patience. It can become expensive with long distance phone calls, stamps, travel, books, copy fees, and computer software. The rewards are great.
