Can anyone trace their family tree back to BC?

No. Most people have a hard time going back just 10 generations.  If a generation is 33 years, then to go back to the year 1 is about 67 generations.  Only the famous were written about and the common man was not recorded.  Even if the common man was recorded, very little of the records are still in existence.  The translation of of the records would be a problem also.  You would also need the records for all of the descendants to be intact. Small odds of that happening.\n  Navaho People have a means by going back for family history, and there are a couple of other groups of people that can trace back the family lines.

I would suggest the Electoral Register or census. Website that specialise in Family Trees would have access to this information - start at Ancestry.com and see what you can find

My answer is easy, Paiute Tribe on my Dad's side, going back at least 10,000 years and Pomo & Wailaki tribes on my mom's side going back at least that long also.  It's easy to trace my native american lineage.

there is a free service through Ancestry.com, they offer limited resources.  For full service, you have to pay.\n\nI was able to work up a very extensive family tree for several generation by using the free service.  You can't find the "lost" ancestors, but there is a huge pool of people who are on the sites, thanks to the Mormon church registry.\ncheck here:\nhttp://www.uftree.com/\nhttp://genealogy.about.com/library/free_charts/bl_family_tree.htm\nhttp://www.ancestorhunt.com/

The links listed above are good but are pay services, as well as geneology.com. However, if you have all your info ready you can sign up for a 2 week free trial and get most all of your work done in that time...especially since you are not going back that far.\n\nI traced my fathers side back to the late 15th century this way. Real neat stuff but also very addictive so be careful. Also easy to get lead in a bad direction so double and triple check all your results before moving to the next generation.\n\nAlso, a decent free site is www.rootsweb.com. \n\nNewsgroups are an excellent resource as well but too complicated to explain here. Feel free to email me if you need help getting started.

go to myheritage.com that site should help. \n\nthere is also ancestry.com but you have to pay for that I think.

Ancestry.com is great to start with, they have taken over everything they could get their hands on so they have all the archives.  If you can find one household in the Census records you'll find you can go back from there.  You'll find enough just from Ancestry to make a pretty good tree, and through their message boards you're likely to run into distant cousins looking at the same thing.
