Genealogy and Family Legacy

Genealogy is the study of our unique family history. It creates a personal record of our ancestors – when they were born, where they lived, who they married, who their children were, what they did for a living, how long they lived, how they died and where we belong in our family tree. 

Genealogy is a curiosity for most people, a hobby for many and an obsession for a few. Some people have specific reasons for exploring their ancestry. Others jump into family history research without giving it much thought. Generally, the most compelling reason for tracing our roots is Family Legacy – a desire to pass on a legacy to future generations. 

Accordingly, the purpose of this blog is to share the Roy-Apted legacy with our children and grandchildren. It will reveal many of the discoveries on this genealogy research initiative so that everyone in our extended family tree can treasure our heritage.
