That's a great observation. Without the invention of the PC, the Internet, and
today's software, I probably wouldn't bother to track anyone but a direct line
ancestor and his/her siblings. There is a 90+ year old lady at the FHC I visit
who tells me ... over and over again ... about the old days when she had to
type (on a typewriter) family group sheets. That in itself would be pretty
discouraging. We have it pretty good...
