All I know from my family history is from my dad's side. My great grandparents were no better than serfs in Ukraine and got out before the shit really hit the fan around the turn of the 20th century. Don't really know where they got the money for the trip to the United States, but they landed in Pittsburgh where my grandfather was born. My grandmother, however, came in from Vancouver and they then eventually hooked up in Detroit where my dad was born.

I'm glad to see someone else ends their posts with it, but you did misspell burn.

That's a sad story, bro. To come all the way from the Ukraine only to be trapped in Pittsburgh. And to escape from there only to find yourself in Detroit. Oh, the humanity... tragic stuff.... tragic stuff.

On the contrary. Those were the days when Pitt and Detroit were in their glory days.

Edit: BURN!

Uhhh...I wouldn't mind Detroit in it's Glory Days, but Pitt? It's a lot better off now. You can see in the daytime.

I'm half-retard, deal with it. :rockon:

Peace.

So you signed up for a free trial and that's what you found out about your family tree?

EDIT: BURN!

I just had a delightful daydream where I dreamt I found out I was related to both Daryl Hall and John Oates!

That's all well and good, comeds, but

I can't go for that (No Can Do)

I like Daryl Hall but I am way more partial to Garfunkel and Oates!
