Was just wondering if anyone has gone back so far on their trees that they cant go back anymore on all sides and also wondering how far back would that be?

I've got back as far as Adam and Eve but unfortunately i can't find a marriage for them to find out who their parents were!! :-D :-D

With a couple of my lines I went back to about 1650, but before that the Parish records were in Latin and the letters were very tiny and a bit different from the usual letters. I decided it was too much like hard work trying to read it. Some of my other lines I am back to about 1800 or a little earlier. More work to do one day. If not for me, then for another family member.

Huia.

LOL Prickly Holly.

lol Holly wasn't Lilleth Adams 1st wife thats what a catholic friend told me? and I dont blame you for not doing the Latin translation the future genealogists have got to have something to do x Was just a random thought at how far back you can actually go? :-D

The following from a search of the trees on Gr

Don't larf at me, I'm shy :-|

There is a God! lots of them actually.
and a Pickled Egg LOL :-D

lol george and omg jiminy you are funny and I was actually seriously wondering how far it is possible to trace your family back and was lilleth adams 1st wife? :-D

Hi Jane Lol, you can't get this lot to be serious.


On one of my lines, courtesy of a distant cousin I am back to 1565

But where did Lilleth Adams come from :-S

Isn't Genealogy Chat for serious genealogy topics though Ann?

i have got back to 1512 on my side and 1640 on my hubbys
so i am now struggling a bit

just filling in details now
i like a bit of meat on the bonesof each of my rellies :-D

Ann I am back to 1629 and same of you due to a distant cousin and Joy wow 1512 is really good I am rubbish at searching and finding out the who and where but once I find out the names and places I go in depth to find out what sort of house they lived in the jobs and what it involved I love knowing where I have come from trouble is no one else in my family cares or is interested so dont have anyone to share it with when I tell them something I think is really good or interesting I get a blank look lol

I have the Adam family in my tree. Very old family lol

Furthest back I have is c1100 - my 27th great-grandfather (Gilbert de Colvyle) - I don't have documents, got the dates from history books.

Island I don't think it matters really, I wasn't knocking the humour on here it was quite funny. But I think it is silly to insist on people not asking serious genealogy questions on chat. Unless they are look up questions which this wasn't.

Brick walls in my own tree but in son-in-laws tree have
Gilbert De Waleton b1190, his 23rd g grandfather.
