France celebrated Bastille Day on the 14th, the Tour de France wraps up on the 21st, 
and Paris is hosting the Olympics starting on the 26th.

This weeks connections honor France with a French Connection link.

It is always interesting to visit the past to see how we are related to each other.  I have 
some ancestors that were black, bank robbers, politicians, physicians, detectives, 
actors, comedians.  I guess that I am a collection of all of them, as we ALL are.

WikiTree.com helps me gather this information with their weekly newsletters.

If you would like to find your connections to famous people, you can start by giving me

I have researched the ancestry for many persons interested in their family history.
