On my mother side of the family its HUGE... my great grandmother has like about 10 or more kids. she raised her grand children and some of her great grand children.. including me when i was a toddler back in jamaica.
I asked mom some information about her mother and all she knew was her moms name and that was it. Oh she has half sisters/brothers whom lives in england that I don't know. They know more of my grandmother then i do...
Then there is my father side of the family. I knew who my father is but I only knew his grandmother. who is in jamaca right now. I also know my half brothers and thats about it. don't know no aunts cousins etc...my younger brother knows more then i do but not that much either...
My mother said its no point in trying because the family is TOO big and i'd go crazy trying to figure it out.. what do i do? The family reunion I went to last year on my mother side of the family hails from jamaica of course, the states, other places in the caribean england etc... All i know is the start was in jamaica. but how far back? i dont know how far.. my great grandmother would be 101 in april...
