Comfeefort, that’s the beauty of this show. It’s just real people and their fascinating personal stories. I’m getting tired of just celebrities getting their family histories done and featured.

Bring this show back into production. I am 3rd generation San Fransican . My Grandmother survived the earthquake and fire. Her father was a member of the special police force. I have learned a bit on that time but would like more details.

I have not seen any of these episodes on television on PBS. But finding out of it from the PBS network app. It seems like a good show I hope PBS can bring it back on the channel so I can watch it from there. As I was doing my family history research I found that I am related to the French explorers Jacques Cartier, Jean Nicolet, and Etienne Brule. And that I am a direct descendent of the Filles du Roi named Catherine de Baillon. Catherine de Baillon is from a minor nobility family in France that traces her ancestry back to the great European monarch King Charles I the great of the Franks who is also known as Charlemagne.

I liked Genealogy Roadshow better than Finding Your Roots, and maybe more, or at least in a tie with, Who Do You Think You Are. I, too, would welcome its return.

@pgl7950 6 ай бұрын

Yes! “Who do you think you are?” is much better than Dr. Henry Louis Gates’ CRT obsessed “Finding your roots”

@@lightyagami3492 trying to. I know what family search says, but going up the maternal line, especially my paternal grandmother’s line, is not easy. It’s like trying to find a needle in a whole barn full of haystacks. I can get up to a certain point, but it’s tricky. It was only 12 years ago that I finally broke the wall on her dad’s side, thanks to my dad’s cousins finally sending me what I had been asking for, for 10 years. My great grandma’s side is a bit trickier. One side is Scottish, the other side is German. It’s the German side that will be connected to Benjamin Franklin.

I should add that the family search site includes paternal lines up to my Palmer line.

Please come back to San Francisco. My daughter and I are tenth and eleventh generation San Franciscans decendants of the original colonizers. Moraga Bernal Ortega Ayala etc. I cross three streets named after them daily. We have our Geniology very well documented. My biggest questions are my Apache and Yaqui family. My Apache grandfather was sent to "indian school" as a child and my Yaqui grandmother was orphaned after soldiers massacred my great grandparents in thier village on northern Mexico. My grandmother only spoke her Native Yaqui language.

I have done some ancestry by myself. I have through my mother taken my family back to the Mayflower. Peregrine White . I have traced my dad's family back to Pocahontas. I want to know if I did this correctly.

Peregrine is an interesting name. If you use it for someone, they could go by Peri/Perry for short. I like it.

The genocide of native americans all over the US, especially here in California, was terrible, and swept under the rug, many of my native american ancestors were hunted down and killed like animals..one good thing is the gene testing now can do what this can do for the most part some of the overseas stuff might be tough...

As if Henry Ford was this altruistic man, paying African Americans $5 a day. No, he racially segregated the metro Detroit suburbs. Let’s not pretend this man was some kind of visionary for this girl’s ancestors. (11:00)

Yes, I heard he was racist and into eugenics. If this is true then he was an horrible human being. He wanted the cheap labor, he wasn’t trying to help anyone but himself.

It may be just the American accent that I am not used to, but why does everyone in this video pronounce "genealogy" incorrectly? Can't they see that there is an "a" in the middle of the word, not an "o"? Don't confuse genealogy with geology.

@user-fq8rs7rz3i 5 ай бұрын

They’re not confusing the words, they just pronounce genealogy wrong. It’s irritating.

Not giving a full story but only the punchline is dissatisfying. It’s the story that is meaningful. Love watching genealogy roadshow but not a fan of the greatest hits
