I've been doing genealogy for 30 years, 8 of them on the Internet. It would take me 40 - 60 hours to assemble a family tree going back to your 16 great-great grandparents. I'm not offering to work for you; I'm using my experience as a ruler. You may not get as far as you want to by Christmas, for several reasons. You may not be able to find 20 3-hour blocks of free time in the next 40 days. You may run into "brick walls". Please don't let that discourage you, and don't let the pressure of "getting it done" let you take facts without checking them.\n\nI save this and paste it because the same questions come up a lot:\n\nWhat are good free sites for genealogy?\nDoes anyone know about the {surname} family?\nHow can I trace my family tree, for free?\n\nSometimes in the genealogy category, \nArts & Humanities -> Genealogy. \nSometimes elsewhere. The fourth time I typed in three of my favorite links I realized it would be better to make a good list and save it. Since this is a general answer, some of the paragraphs may not apply to you. If you search or browse the resolved questions in the Genealogy category, you can find more links from other people. \n\nTwo warnings:\n1) It takes time. Compiling a good family tree is like writing a term paper for a high school history class.  You have to do research.\n2) Most of the genealogy data on the web is about people born before 1900, to protect living people's privacy. You'll have to find your grandparents (or great grandparents) off the web. \n\nHere are some large free sites. \n\nhttp://www.cyndislist.com/\n(240,000+ links, all cross-indexed.)\nhttp://www.familysearch.com\n(Mormon's mega-site)\nhttp://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi\n(450,000,000+ entries, some excellent, some bad, most in between)\nhttp://www.ancestry.com/learn/facts/default.aspx?ln=\nSurname meanings and origins; no specific individuals, but fun.\n\nThese are for the USA only. \n\nhttp://www.usgenweb.net/\n(Subdivided into state sites, which all have county sites.)\n(Canada has a Canadian Gen Web, with sites for each province.)\nhttp://ssdi.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ssdi.cgi\n(Social Security Death index - click on "Advanced".)\nhttp://find.person.superpages.com/\n(US Phone book, for looking up distant cousins)\n\nThese two are for the UK & Ireland only:\nhttp://www.genuki.org.uk\nhttp://www.freebmd.org.uk/\n\n\nIf you get serious, you should probably buy a genealogy program. I like Roots Magic. Family Tree Maker is very popular. Both are $29 in the USA, but you can sometimes find old versions in discount bins at software stores.\n\nhttp://www.tedpack.org/begingen.html\nhas some tips for beginners.

My mother died last Christmas Day at age 92.  At her funeral, my nephew made the point that not many people get to have grandparents in their lives for the first 40 years.

Link 1 below has 22 'yacobi" and 30,000+ "Jacoby". "Yacobi" looked Jewish to me, so I threw in a link to a forum dedicated to Jewish genealogy.

Between 10 & 15 generations on my moms side and 4 on my fathers.\n\nOn my moms side we have been traced back to England and coming over during the first settlement here in America.  We have recoreds prior to that in England and Germany.  My father side we can trace back to my great grandmother who was a slave in Kingston, Jamacia.  She was freed in the 1920's and came to America where my grandfather was born.

i have seven (and yes you're in there now too!)... it's easier to find their questions this way (and to refer back to my answers to their questions) than looking all over.  yahoo answers really did their homework to put this feature in.  i use it quite often!  \n\nso behave, lady.  i'm watching you!
