Getting2theRoots is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. As a result, I earn a small commission from qualifying purchases made through my affiliate links. Importantly, this does not result in any additional cost to you, the valued customer. Your support through these affiliate links helps sustain and grow this platform, allowing me to continue sharing genealogy research tips, reunion planning insights, and captivating stories on my YouTube channel.
