Quiet Ancestors is me, Lisa Young, although I’m not always quiet and I’m not much of an ancestor – yet. Here you’ll find inspiration and hopefully new ideas to help you do what I’m trying to do – create stories where there are gaps, find resources to answer your questions and make it all as un-boring as possible so that YOUR kids will take as much pride in their heritage as YOU do. I know that you want all of your genealogy work to get passed down to future generations (not dumped into a roll-off dumpster from the second story of your house when you’re gone).My site is dedicated to helping you get your genealogy crap in order. Because it’s not crap. It’s super cool.

Oh, hi there!

I am Lisa Young! A couple years ago I didn't know that filling in a simple family tree would lead me to writing a blog about genealogy. What could have been boring has been anything but boring! I have found so many unbelievable things about my ancestors and I LOVE sharing these "family secrets" and unknown facts with my own family. I want to help YOU find your own family story and share it in a way that is FUN and EXCITING!
