Someone earlier posted a question on when to stop adding names. About a year ago I decided to stop at 50,000 names then I changed my mind and continued to add names. Because I changed my mind I discovered that my wife was my 9th cousin twice removed. I would never have known this had I stopped at 50,000. So I keep adding names to see where it all leads me. Who knows I might be related to YOU.

No just ADAM and EVE. It is logical that if you go on and on, everyone is related back to them

Honestly do not see what you gain

Hi Les, What I gained was knowledge, that's the reason I do genealogy to gain knowledge of my ancestors and relatives. As for Adam & Eve I don't believe in that fairy tale. :-)

I think my ancestors originally were hairy tree dwellers :-)

Hi Wally just a tongue in cheek reply.

At last he's found his relative, as you pointed out earlier.

It could be you.

Thanks Les for the picture of one of my cousins, if you could remove all of the body hair he/she sure looks familiar.

When your tree gets to the ancestral tree dwellers - where do you stop? Ted

Hi Ted

Somewhere in my memory tells me that they came from fish and learned to come on land

Using the same Tongue but the other cheek

Down in the meadow in a

little bitty pool

Swam three little fishies

And a mama fishie too

"Swim," said the mama fishie,

"Swim if you can."

And they swam and they swam all

over the dam

All the best

Les

Easier to go back to Adam and Eve

Tongue in cheek - again

Les, the problem with tracing my ancestors back to Adam & Eve is that their family was what is considered today as immoral. Their children practised incest to enlarge their families then there was a murder when Cain killed Abel. I don't know that I want to be associated with this type of family.

Hi Wally, I would Wholehearltly agree, but not in todays values, as all this seems to be the way of living with lots today.

I believe that if you looked closely at some of your 50,000 names you would find all what you have mentioned and more, as I believe most of us would.

Still lfe must go on, and we all live it in our own way.

Glad you took it in the spirit I mentioned, as some times it can be so boring and dusty.

All the best

Les
