My mother sparked my genealogy interest again by putting together an expedition to Detroit to meet distant relatives connected several generations back-- nobody was from the area, so we convened at an airport hotel and I immediately realized that these people were much more hardcore than I was. I wasn't sure how this was going to work out

Wow. That's serious research.

I just listened to this episode of this american life, which has a fascinating story of digging back through family history.

Also, my father once dragged me to some burning hot suburb in Orange county in search of family records. No success.
