A friend of mine's mother is/was REALLY into genealogy, she had computer 
software installed on the family's home PC to generate a family tree and 
store all kinds of information, kind of like ancestry.ca but just on your own
PC.

She even had gravestone "rubbings" she did herself framed on the wall of 
various ancestors (and others rolled up in cardboard tubes).

Probably a little more than I'll ever get into it, but you're right in that 
some people really do fall down the rabbit hole.
