Genealogy

Genealogy is the study of family history and lineage, focusing on tracing and documenting an individual's ancestors and descendants. It involves researching various records—such as birth, marriage, death certificates, census data, and oral histories—to piece together family relationships over generations. The goal is to understand one’s heritage, origins, and how family connections have evolved over time. Genealogy can reveal cultural, historical, and personal identity insights, helping people connect with their roots and preserve their family stories for future generations.
