American & European Family Forest Millennium Edition CD-ROM

The A&E Family Forest is the fifth CD-ROM title in a series of lineage-linked databases that digitally connect people with each other, and with the history they created, in a fun, educational, and exciting new format.

The A&E Family Forest digitally maps out and connects recorded knowledge about the family ties that lead to most of the people in America and Europe, and makes the results available almost instantly. In addition to many of the people in the A&E Family Forest being connected to a thousand or more of their ancestors (ancestors are only parents of parents, etc., and not aunts, uncles, or cousins) over the span of twenty centuries, many are connected to six thousand or more cousins.

What does it mean to be a cousin (no matter how distant) of someone? Basically it means that somewhere back in time, maybe many centuries ago, there were two people who were ancestors of both you and your cousin. It also means that each and every ancestor of those two people, all the way back to wherever the beginning was, was also an ancestor of you and your cousin.

While the A&E Family Forest is very much about genealogy, it is primarily about U.S. history, and more than 1,500 years of Old World history leading up to the birth of the United States. It is a fun and very easy to use reference source that should be a valuable resource for every student of history, young or old.
