Genealogy is a fascinating hobby.
I've recently became involved in researching my own heritage with a couple of my cousins and we and have since located a family member of ours that didn't know we existed.
 

Rather than list the hundreds of sites available, I've listed of some of the more popular genealogy sites that should help you to get stared.
Be sure to check out Cindi's List. Her site lists many ways of helping you in your search for family members.

  
FindMyPals would like to help all genealogists by creating a list of Surnames that they are researching. 
If you have a personal genealogy website that you would like to be included on our list, please fill out the form Here.
