Do you want to know exactly who your ancestors were: where they lived; what they did for a living; whether that story of highwaymen, criminals and corrupt relatives is factual, or a figment of Grandma's over-active imagination?

Genealogy - defined as 'an account of the descent of a person or family through an ancestral line', is a high faluting description of what, to the rest of us, is known simply as 'tracing the family tree'.

Nostalgia, which has become very popular in recent years, has found a wealth of collectible interests emerging amongst a public ever eager to get their hands on anything connected with the past: old postcards, postage stamps, paper ephemera, 1950s and '60s memorabilia - and family trees! It seems that today we are not content to know just how our ancestors lived - and I mean specific ancestors, namely those whose genes, characteristics and hereditary behavior are the sum result of our very being.
