Family tree???

Ok my Grandmother says we have Scottish in our family my Aunt says British, my Mom Irish, and some of my older cousins say A mix of Italian and French! So I was hoping that someone could point me in the direction of A free family tree website so I can see if I can trace it. Remember free website! 10q n advance!

1. http://www.familytree.com/ http://ancestry.com/ This is what I came up with so far. Try Google, it gives you loads.
2. there are no free family tree sites all of them charge but you can use ancestry.com for 14 days free, you can use the ellis island site and see if any of your family came through there, there is also the morman site which is LDS but you cant get all years from their site. if you had given your last name it may have been possible to check on surname sites to see the origin depending on what it is.., there is also http://www.cyndislist.com/, she has some useful sites also
3. first thing you should try to do is try to get the most surnames you can. http://www.thetreemaker.com/family-coat-of-arms.html http://www.ancestry.com/learn/facts/default.aspx?ln= and if you want more go to google type your surname and add surname origin then it will give you alot of diffrent sites
4. All of them may be right! The best way I know for you to learn about your roots is to: Build your family tree on line. You can do this for free on: http://www.tribalpages.com/ Start with yourself, then attach living family members. Find out all you can about you family from living members, then attach it to your tree. Now it is time to look for historical records and attach the info to your tree: It is ALL about census records, and other historical records! You might get lucky and others may have done some work on your family tree. Google family members names i.e. "Mary Smith" + "family tree" Free sites: http://www.searchforancestors.com/ http://www.censusrecords.net/?o_xid=27399&o_lid=27399 http://www.usgenweb.com/ http://www.census.gov/ http://www.rootsweb.com/ http://www.ukgenweb.com/ http://www.archives.gov/ http://www.familysearch.org/ http://www.accessgenealogy.com/ http://www.cyndislist.com/ ECT. The time may come when you want more information than you can find for free. When this happens you can back up your "tribalpage" tree to your computer on a "GEDCOM" file you can then go to (I think it is the best subscription site) http://www.ancestry.com/ Upload your "GEDCOM" file and start to work! You might need to make a few adjustments to your tree to make it look better.
