How often do you think about all the people that lived on Earth before you? How did all the utility poles, the buildings, the roads, and the trees in the parks get here? They were all created by the people before you – life was created by the generations before you.
Your immediate family is what made your being alive possible, and the least you can do about it, it seems, is honor them by finding out who they really were. One genealogy enthusiast recently shared his family roots going back to the 1800s.
His journey down memory lane prompted others to do the same, soon inspiring a trend online of folks sharing vintage photos of family members from every generation in their family tree.
