  1. Wonderful finding your family tree. Try to take them back as far as you can go. It can be a very rich reward. The wars they were in, their way of living, their beliefs. Many court houses burnt down and lots of records are lost like in the civil war but those that weren't are like getting treasure. Thanks for sharing!

  2. I'll just toss in my 2 cents worth. started genealogy about 6 yo. I started with my free family tree on ancestry.com. They will give you a limited amount of info free, but you can piggyback familysearch.org (free LDS genealogy website) to fill in the blanks. Of course, you can also get an ancestry membership to have complete access-I sometimes do that in the winter-when I don't have as much farm stuff to do. You can do an incredible amount online these days, but the most fun is visiting sites in person. IMHO

  3. It's great to dig around in the family history. One side of my family is researched back many generations the other side remains to be found… I have only just realised why my beans are called Cherokee trail of tears.

  4. Hey when it starts getting close to the time for the hummingbirds to migrate…like a couple or few weeks before…take all those hummingbird feeders and hang them within a foot or eighteen inches of each other and behold the magic. Also, disregard anything written on the box about taking them down by a certain date. Don't do it – hummingbirds leave according to their bodyweight, not a certain date. My dad discovered all this almost by accident, and he would have literally HUNDREDS of hummers on his back porch, where he had five or six feeders all in a row – it sounded like a huge box fan out there! They would drink one or two GALLONS per day (I can't remember which)! When refilling the feeders, they would drink from the stream going from the jug to the empty feeder. If you walked outside and placed your hands around the bottom of the feeder and stood still, within seconds you'd have four or five hummingbirds sitting on your hands drinking from the feeders. It was MAGIC. We had several VHS tapes of this – and we can't find them. 🙁

  5. so cool. Our eldest son, Cameron, has gotten our line all the way back to England. We came into the US in Connecticut in the 1600's, and there are still a lot of Aldermans up there.

  6. Patara, Wonderful ! where do I look to find your first part of the journey ? I have family there too .
    Thanks for an interesting video .I really enjoyed it .
    Blessings , Linda

  7. Patera, I just saw you on Justin Rhodes channel as he stopped at your home. I had seen you before in passing but am excited to see you again so i can subscribe. Genealogy is a great treasure of my husband and I. We started our channel and are on 111 days straight, sharing our homestead. We are excited to watch you and learn from you. Thank you.

  8. I work on our family genealogy as well. Discovered my husband and I are distant cousins through his mom. Our daughter in law is a distant cousin through her mom, my husband's dad and my mom's dad and mom as well. The discoveries and the history of our ancestors are valuable treasures for me. I try to print out as much of their information as possible to pass down to all three of my sons.

  9. Patara! you truly brought me home with this video! I have been almost to every place you showed us! As a small child, I spent alot of time in many grave yards watching my mama search for our family grave sites! she loved to do rubbings back then!

  10. I know of another store by that name and it is named so because it is near the dam on the river.

    Thanks for filming the printed historical information. It was interesting reading. I have ancestors who were born in Cherokee Tribe, Dade Co, GA, but I have no idea if any of them were rounded up and put on the trail of tears. I haven’t been able to dig that deeply yet.

  11. Thanks for the road trip. Never been there but got to see some of the country my father's side of the family came from. From Cabarras County N.Carolina to eastern Tennessee. Then from Georgia to Northeastern Oklahoma one year before the forced removal of the Cherokees. Scenery much like the area I live in. If I ever get a chance to go there I've got a feeling it'll feel like going home.
