Ancestor...or Descendant?

I enclose the message below from the APG message board received this morning from a brave reader and contributor, Kate Foote:


Snipped from an email received this evening:
“Kate, I am an ancestor of the Footes also and i know that the name…”

Now this isn’t the first time I’ve seen this – and I usually have a chuckle and let it go. But I’m wondering if there is someone out there who knows how old I really am?!!

Okay, let's see just how awake our dear readers are out there?

Are you an ancestor or a descendant in your own family tree?

An ancestor is someone who precedes a known generation. And a descendant is someone who follows a known generation.

So, which are you????
Hmmm????
