Tracing the Line of Descent - All share ancestry, may be quite dissimilarly
 

A conscious watch may open the secret identity of your linkage with the people around ‎you known to be mama, pa, brothers, sisters; grand parents, and so on since the days you ‎learnt recognizing. But the same consciousness will strike you to think why from this ‎close circle some reveal no consistency in features or traits, abruptly breaking from ‎alikeness.‎

Very commonly the children feel like the other self of he or she emotionally occupying ‎the scenario in family history, hearing from the elders a narration or happenings in bygone ‎days of the family. ‎

It is an interesting encapsulation caused by the nature making genes coded and preserve ‎the specific qualities to suddenly disclose in the line of descent, as if a whim of her. ‎

It is all like etching on a microchip to activate an action with touch of a button anytime ‎you feel like.‎

Who will not be interested to peep back and know where he or she comes from, call it ‎inquisitiveness or attraction of the blood? Scientifically and sociologically it has a ‎meaning and can solve some problems as also possibly work as cohesive factor within ‎people. Hence there is a growing popularity for genealogy.‎

The study conducted by Damon Hostetler, a researcher in Florida who actively chairs ‎Tampa Bay area genealogical associations, disclosed the fact that more and more families ‎are getting involved to trace their parental lineage.‎

With the time, people have been spreading away for compulsion of sustenance and ‎improved living. This factor alone has continuously played a breaking role, pushing people ‎away from their origin and ancestral sequences. Many researchers and social workers have ‎brought people’s attention to this fact that has robbed the families of many privileges. ‎

The kinship has diluted gradually resulting to nuclear families of a single heritage, spread ‎over vast distances making even ‘Hello, Hi’ a matter of celebration, occurring only in a ‎few and far apart way, if at all. Thank God, increasing number of people feel concerned ‎to dig out their ancestral lineage, but apathy of many of the kins acts as dampers. ‎

There is the big part played by the increasing number of associations to spread awareness ‎and propagate interest for down the line descendents.‎

In the times of our great grandparents, recording ancestral lineage starting from the first ‎traceable place and links drawn thru the routes they traveled was customary. The ‎statements in Bible list descendents of the ‘sons of Noah’ in Genesis 10 under the story ‎titled ‘The Table of Nations’. It is noteworthy that the ’daughters’ were excluded from ‎recording.‎

Family history is a thing assuming shape of pyramid. Under the ensuing progress of ‎recording precisions, our ancestry towards the top of the pyramid is getting exposed ‎significantly, whether barons or outlaws.‎

In recent past, the gathering of retired people in conference on ‘Genealogical Data ‎Collection’ in Sun City, Florida proved much revealing to find established linkage as old ‎as over 400 years, and still having clues of finding links down the years. ‎

It certainly cannot be overlooked to question these retired people why were they not ‎active all the years before? This gives rise to suspicion from their sudden activity and ‎interest that plenty of available time only has played the catalytic effect to their quest. ‎

Casting a positive attitude on the ongoing efforts to trace the ancestral lineage, one ‎cannot be a buddy but still question the active researchers for their late beginning of the ‎efforts. Had they commenced a decade or two ago, what an extensive readily usable facts ‎could be on the net today to churn out information just at the click of mouse, for which ‎our parents had to take considerable pain and keep patience traveling distances to gather ‎facts. ‎

Objective of this website is to be the ground for tracing and connecting bloodline with ‎ease and in conformity of the expectations of the users. The site will guide users about ‎ways of collecting information like online searching, hunting the libraries, the Church ‎records, newspapers, cemetery records, obituary releases and such others o on. It is ‎intended to give an experience to our descendents of the treasure of the past they carry to ‎make them feel proud emotionally and keep motivated to enrich the line of descent to be ‎examples to their sons and grandsons and foster goodness in the society. ‎ ‎ ‎
