The Chad Pastoralist: History
To continue... Having a family tree that extends beyond the 18th and 19th centuries helps to establish a sense of continuity back into prehistory, because we garner a sense of where we would be in any given generation. Some modern Pagans choose to ignore…
This post from Chad Pastoralist is rather insightful and mirrors a lot of my most recent thoughts, so I figured I would expound upon this great topic.
1. Having a family tree that extends beyond 18th and 19th century:
This is a very important topic, and sadly, it is one of the hardest hurdles for many in the West. I am lucky enough to have a family history that goes back a few hundred years. But I will admit there was some loss of records for the genealogy that seems to have started with the always blamed (though for a reason) boomer generation. I had to spend a bit of money and do a lot of diggings asking as old of living relatives as I currently have (grandparents in their 90s) for this information. I have been able to trace my family lines back to at minimum 13th century or older. Historically, many family records weren’t officially kept by any government census for certain regions earlier than this.
