What is Genealogy?

Genealogy is the history of you and your family. It is your mother and father, grandparents, great grandparents,
and so on. It is often called "The Family Tree". You take the family and place them in order, called generations.
Sometimes you have to do some tracking down for information, like in the family bible or go to libraries,
churches and even to the City Records building.

The above definition can be found on the Genealogy For Kids website at http://www.geocities.com/EnchantedForest/5283/genekids.htm
