History Channel program
The History Channel aired a program last night called "Family Tree". It dealt a great deal with geneology, but also with name origins and how they have evolved. There was a story about tracking down William Wallace's (Braveheart) name/origins. Another story dealt with the how one American family's name evolved from the African name of their ancestor. I really liked it and thought some of you would be interested in catching it next time it airs.

If anyone recorded that one for me...... you might want to attach the tape to a chunk of styrofoam and throw it into the ocean. It will likely get to me faster than by other more conventional methods. Would you not agree Nan? ;)Seriously though, the program sounds interesting. If you hear of it airing again please post the info here.
