My family tree can be traced back by word of mouth only, there are very few written records -- it's all oral stories. "Mythology" has provided me with my first original ancestor from 1000 BC or possibly earlier.

I am the first in my family to be born outside of India though (England) & my younger sister -- the first to be born in the US :-) That's my little claim to fame.

But I am an Indian with fair skin, light brown hair & green eyes. Even fellow Indians think I am mixed. My grandmother & her brother had blue eyes, wonder where that comes from, would be interesting to find out!

Tina, I use FB but I am not addicted. I post some on my wall and I contribute to the FB page for the local historical society. I enjoy reading some of the posts but I play no games.

I always said about Twitter, one is twittering their life away - so it is with FB.

Yes I have come across several people with the same exact last name as me, and I always wonder how I could find out whether we're related...
