Tracing your ancestors?

Question:

Tracing your ancestors?

Like those shows you see on tv called "who do you think you are" how could i trace my ancestors and see what they did and all that detailed stuff?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: well, i was on tv for tracing my ancestors and you just do it with ur mind. I am in a movie about this called Snake Hill, just take up facts and then let yourself find the person.
