does anyone remember what that thing was, that let's you find your ancestors? you pay like 100 and within some months you get a list of all your ancestors (you must give your dna obviously) with a map from where to where they moved over all the years
and like I said it all started in africa
it's really interesting, could actually be a cool gift for someone

my aunty is really into the family history stuff, shes done a great deal of work on our family tree..i have a copy somewhere..it goes pretty far back and there's some knights and stuff on there..pretty cool :)
and lilley..why do i believe that?
because I believe just because someone with a degree tells you that "this is how things are and if you think differently you're wrong..because i've spent my whole life researching it" is a pretty black and white way to look at the world.
maybe its just because I have a colourful imagination

I think my Clapp surname originates from Denmark. It was originally 'Klap' in Denmark, but some migrated to England after 1066.

well basically (i went and dragged out the stuff i have - paper everywhere)
king henry the 3rd makes a brief appearance...along with lords and ladys of lands that probably dont exist anymore.
some of them have strange occupations..like Archdeacon, and the rector of the church in this place (Timoleague)
lucky my aunty has the patience...cause i don't

one of my great grand fathers was the doge of venice which means we once ruled the city and now we don't anymore.
this is much more interesting then andy talking things about kathryn, actually I start thinking he feels attracted to her but is to stubborn to admit, and the reason he doesn't like mortis is because unconsciously he's jealous of him. simple as that..

now don't you go stirring shit up again
as far as my ancestry on my mother's side I can only trace back as far as my great grandparents being of japanese descent. They emigrated to what I assume was still Mexico atm to help build the railroads, much like they came to California to build railroads. That's all I know. And unfortunately I have no names or anything record-keeping in Mexico isn't probably all that great so I doubt I can find paper proof of anything.

You've never heard of it bruv? I know it sounds dodgy, but basically it means erected man, as in the first man to walk upright ;p
