[About this page]
When you find ancestors, are
you interested
in learning more about the history they lived? Do you want to
explore
new directions to solve the unsolved mystery? What was home and
family
life like? What did they eat? wear? read? What were the important
happenings? Why were the wars fought and who fought them? How in
the world did they move about?
This page is being created, on a volunteer basis, to explore the world of our ancestors who resided in Ontario. Through your genealogical research, you have learned something about your ancestors. How do you learn more? How do you solve the unsolved mystery? My answer to both is to learn more about genealogical research by learning more about the history your ancestors lived. After all, isn't genealogy the history of individuals and families? I believe our ancestors would want us to know more about them than just their names and dates of birth and death. Don't you? If you have a page that helps to answer questions like these, or you know of such a site, please submit the URL, (and your suggestion for the category it would fit) by e-mail to me, so I can add it to this page. After all, we can only learn from the past when we learn about the past. You will be helping others to gain knowledge of our history by doing so. You may e-mail the link to Webweaver of this page.
