DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn extraordinary exploration of the ancestry of Britain through seven burial sites. By using new advances in genetics and taking us through important archaeological discoveries, Professor Alice Roberts helps us better understand life today. ‘This is a terrific, timely and transporting book - taking us heart, body and mind beyond history, to the fascinating truth of the prehistoric past and the present’ Bettany Hughes We often think of Britain springing from nowhere with the arrival of the Romans. But in Ancestors, pre-eminent archaeologist, broadcaster and academic Professor Alice Roberts explores what we can learn about the very earliest Britons, from burial sites and by using new technology to analyse ancient DNA. Told through seven fascinating burial sites, this groundbreaking prehistory of Britain teaches us more about ourselves and our history: how people came and went and how we came to be on this island. It explores forgotten journeys and memories of migrations long ago, written into genes and preserved in the ground for thousands of years. This is a book about belonging: about walking in ancient places, in the footsteps of the ancestors. It explores our interconnected global ancestry, and the human experience that binds us all together. It’s about reaching back in time, to find ourselves, and our place in the world.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWe are James Elywn and Rebecca Rae Stanton and this is a narrative account of our family history. We started with almost nothing, in search of our roots, as have many others before us, and had the good fortune to find more than we ever dreamed we could find. It wasn't easy, we went down many blind alleys, were sure that we were on the right track many times only to find that we were wrong, dead wrong. We found that many of the tales told by our own parents were myths, distortions or exaggerations. But in spite of it all, or perhaps because of it all, it was a great paper chase; interesting, enlightening, and fun. It has been four years since we started it and we're still not finished. There are still unanswered questions, maybe they'll never be answered. We don't know that. We don't know if everything we have put down here is the gospel truth either, but we've given it our best shot, and we'll keep giving it our best shot. This book contains the history of four intertwined families, the Stantons, the Meads, the Lindemans, and the Wolfs. In addition to the narratives we include a section entitled "The Mysterious Charles S. Stanton" which recounts the perils and pitfalls our search for the most elusive of our ancestors, our Grandfather Charles S. Stanton.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA recent Maritz Poll reported that 60% of Americans are interested in their family history. And with good reason. Through genealogy, you can go back into history to meet people who have had more influence on your life than any others -- your ancestors. And the better you get to know your ancestors, the better you will get to know yourself: the who's and what's and why's of you. Barbara Renick, a nationally-known lecturer on genealogy, tells the uninitiated researcher the steps needed to find out who their ancestors really were, and brings together for even the more experienced genealogical researchers the important principles and practices. She covers such topics as the importance of staying organized and how to go about it; where and how to look for information in libraries, historical societies, and on the internet; recognizing that just because something is in print doesn't mean it's right; and how to prepare to visit the home where your ancestors lived. Genealogy 101 is the first book to read when you want to discover who your ancestors were, where they lived, and what they did.
