"Family history, I am doing it"

Last night I signed up for a free 14-day trial of ancestry.com, and since I don't want a membership for a year, I have been looking for ancestors like crazy! And...I have TRIUMPHED!! Ok, it's only a small triumph, but it's also cool. I was looking for my dad's grandpa, on his Father's side, and I found George Martin Epperson's World War I draft registration card! So, now I have a specific birthdate and I know that he had blue eyes and brown hair. It was very cool! Also, I think I found the marriage date, and thus the last name, for my grandma's ancestors. They lived in Georgia in the early 1800s. This is great!!
