About Relative Connections
This endeavor is my attempt at connecting related generations through traditional genealogical research and keeping a connection between present generations of our family. Since living generations may no longer have the advantage of a familial lineage centered in one locale, our use of technology offers the ability to connect with ease and immediacy.
Genealogical research allows us to reconnect with a simpler past and discover our roots. In turn, each of us has the opportunity to link our heritage to future generations by preserving our impressions of family history.
If you could see humanity spread out in time, as God sees it, it would look like one single growing thing--rather like a very complicated tree. Every individual would appear connected with every other. - C. S. Lewis
