Start here: http://www.native-languages.org/blackfoot_culture.htm\n\nAmerican Indians relied on oral traditions, so you will have to identify your particular tribe and see if anyone knows its oral history. You will not find much useful help on Yahoo Answers about your particular family history.

You can either find your records through AKO and "my personnel" in the self service or go to www.hrc.army.mil, select HRC Alexandria.  Once there, you'll have quite a few selections on the left starting with "my record."  You'll need your ako login information to access all those features on the left.\n\nFor finding information on your unit, go to www.army.mil.  Select Organization from the header selection group.  Then select from the left side menu what type of installation you departed.  For example, if you left Fort Lewis, WA; you would select Forts and then scroll down the list of forts until you find Fort Lewis.  From there, you're on your own.  You should be able to find your unit on the installation's webpage or at least a unit locator number for that particular installation.

The only way is to do the footwork. If your father was referring to British royalty and you are keen to trace your family in the UK, you will need to look at your family's birth, marriage and death certificates. If your Dad has his birth certificate it will show your grandparents' names. You can then trace back to their certificates and discover your great grandparents' names until they started in 1837. From that information, you should be able to discover dates and places and compare them to censuses which will give you more information. Finally, the oldest data around is contained in parish registers. It will take some doing to find out, but is possible.\n\nA lot of this information has been made available on-line.\n\nIf your ancestors were royal doctors, it is also likely that they will appear in history books and biographies - so it is worth rooting around your second hand bookshops and library too.\n\nThe BBC has a brilliant website that will help anyone interested in finding out about their British ancestory. See below . . .

Try the Human Genome Project\nThere is some other project where you send them a splot of your blood and they tell you your entire family history and migration patterns and everything.\nIt's called genetic anthropology.\n\nSome scientists now believe that everyone can be traced back to 4 major groups of people or something like that.\n\nHere's the only link I found but there are better ones out there.

These may help get you started. The study of family history is called "Genealogy", and Yahoo! Has a category for it over in Arts & Humanities.\n\nhttp://www.cyndislist.com/\n(240,000+ links, all cross-indexed.)\n\nhttp://www.familysearch.com\n(Mormon's mega-site)\n\nhttp://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi\n(450,000,000+ entries, of varying quality)\n\nhttp://www.usgenweb.net/\n(Subdivided into state sites, which all have county sites.)\n\nhttp://ssdi.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ssdi.cgi\n(Social Security Death index - click on "Advanced".)\n\nhttp://find.person.superpages.com/\n(US Phone book, for looking up distant cousins)\n\nhttp://www.ancestry.com/learn/facts/default.aspx?ln=\nSurname meanings and origins\n\nThree warnings: \n\nThere isn't a magic site that will take your name in and give you a 12-generation pedigree. Genealogy takes time.\n\nYou won't find living people on any of the sites except the phone book one. You will have to find your grandparents' or great grandparents' birth dates and maiden names somewhere besides the Internet.\n\nThe free sites are supported by advertising, just like TV. You can't watch the Super Bowl without seeing a beer commercial, and you can't surf for dead relatives without seeing an Ancestry advertisement. Don't complain about advertisements. They bring you the "free" sites. There's no such thing as a free lunch.
