The Surname Tree is here for you to know yourself better. You are your genes, so this is not just your parents and grandparents but your great-grandparents and those before them.
Who are you named after? Which side of the family does your nose come from? Your eyes? Your laugh? Your mannerisms?
Family research can reveal a lot about the influences on your own appearance and behaviour, and you will find plenty of ancestors to be proud of.
