genealogical tracing

Genealogical tracing is the process of researching and documenting an individual's family history by collecting information about ancestors and relatives. It involves examining records such as birth, marriage, death certificates, census data, and other historical documents to piece together family connections over generations. The goal is to create an accurate family tree and understand lineage, heritage, and ancestral origins. This process often combines historical research, interviews, and sometimes DNA analysis to verify relationships and uncover details about family origins and migrations.
