Your parents, grandparents, and great grandparents all fell in love and raised a family. Learning the connections of the people in your family tree gives one a sense of belonging. How did they meet? Maybe you will find your great grandparents living on the same street in a census record, or maybe you will learn that they meet in a military hospital during a war. Love blooms in the most interesting places like a chance meeting on an emigration ship.
