Who do you think you are?

There's a new show on TV that researches the ancestry of famous people.
They are so excited to learn their family history and to find their roots. I have been fortunate to know about my ancestry most of my life. I have 16 sets of great-great grandparents. Most of them were born in England, a few were born in Sweden. They listened to the Mormon missionaries, joined the church and migrated to the United States. All of them crossed the plains in covered wagons and are buried in Utah, the state where I was born. My ancestors are very important to me. Without their dedication, faith and perseverance, I would not be who I am today.....and I would be living in England!!
