Here's an example from my own family of what using just one of these
simple techniques can help you discover:
.I found out that one of my ancestors was a skilled craftsman who owned
his own business - now I knew where my carpentry skills came from.
.I found out another had been a great opera singer who specialized in
playing the villain's roles (I can't sing worth a lick -- I wonder
what happened to that gene).
.I found out another had been a drummer in an early American jazz band
(this blew my mind - I had been a drummer in my own band in high
school!). I even found an old reel-to-reel recording of one his jam
sessions!
.I found priceless photos of my great-grandfather Giovanni from "the
old country," and finally figured out where the heck all the hair on
my head comes from (if you remember the sitcom Seinfeld, and Kremer's
crazy hairstyle, you'll have a pretty good mental picture of old
Giovanni).
And that's from using just one of the incredibly simple research
methods I uncovered!
