    About this ebook

    A Book for the Curious,

    Amateur or Serious Genealogists

     

    Learn About Your Past

     

    Are you a genealogist looking for background information?  Ancestors are more than just a name and date.  History becomes more alive when you realize your ancestors were a part of it.

     

    The author presents information on THE WORLD OF YOUR ANCESTORS - GENERAL INFORMATION - VOLUME 1 on early life in Europe and the Americas up to the early 1800's.  Genealogy is exciting and this first in a series of three gives readers a quick look into what their ancestor's life might have been like.

     

    The bits and pieces of information presented allow readers a peek into their relative's lives.  It presents a few of the endless topic areas available and you can select those of interest to you.

     

    Are your ancestors Austrian, British, German or Italian?  Were they Pilgrims, Puritans, Quakers or live in Colonial times?  Were they Native American Indians, fur traders or mountain men?  If the answer is yes, there is lots of interesting historical information for you.  Are you just curious?  Here is your chance to satisfy that curiosity and learn something new.

     

    You can imagine your ancestor's day-to-day.  What was their world really like?  Who and what events controlled their lives?  See what freedoms they had.  Gain some insight into their world.

     

    You can learn about castles, chores, clothing, crime, diet, education, entertainment, holiday celebrations, homes, leadership, medicine, occupations, religion, transportation and more.

     

    Enjoy a mini tour into the past in THE WORLD OF YOUR ANCESTORS - GENERAL INFORMATION - VOLUME 1 .  You will be thinking, "I never knew that" or "I always wondered about that" or "that's interesting"… or "that's why…"
