      That just depends on how you've been raised & taught about family. I actually live in the house my great grandfather built in 1930. My family on my grandfathers & grandmothers side still live on the same land from the 1700s. My daughter is even named after my great grandfather, Avery. Majority of the families where I live have been here for 100s of years and know their family history.

      @@stevekima8881 Yes. Easy to look up for most people in the UK due to good birth/death registers. We managed to get it back 5-7 generations on all branches, before internet was around to help. Not as easy for everyone - depends on the country, family circumstances, whether your family had moved around a lot (especially if due to war or other cause for refugee status), etc. But you'll note many of the people on the show are able to trace ancestors across generations and continents - however the show is misleading since obviously money is put behind the search. Still, there are many sites doing this digitally now.

That is why Canadians fought bravely protecting their land in the shameful war of 1812.
