Best way to find my family's ancestry?

have you tried asking your parents

Yeah you can hire one. Some distant relative did it and sent a copy of the info to my dad.

We now have a big book documenting every family member, their careers, places of residence, etc since the 1740s when Johann Hoffman first arrived in America with his 10 children. Johan served with the British in the 7 years war, ancestors fought on both sides of the civil war, all sorts of neat facts. It's one of the coolest things my dad owns. I'd give up all the rest of my inheritance to get it when he dies.
