If you’re going to research your genealogy any more than just a list of names and dates, be ready to find out all kinds of unexpected facts. I found out that a couple of my ancestors back in the 16th century had been executed. They were not married, but that wasn’t their only crime. The woman was the sister of the man’s wife. I found another guy who married twice Nothing wrong with that since his first wife died, but his second wife was only three years older than his oldest daughter by his first wife.
