Do you know the names of all 8 of your great grandparents?

For a younger person (say under 50), discovering all of your ggrandparents really shouldn't be that difficult. After all, you are talking about your parents' grandparents. One of my grandparents was supposedly born in 1850. He lived to be 89, based on that possibility, but it was the year before I was born, and no one knew anything about his parents. His name is too common, and his location in 1860 too uncertain to find him with any degree of certainty on the census. My only hope is to convince a male cousin with the same last name to submit DNA. Even then, the chances of finding my ggrandparents are pretty slim. You are fortunate...now, do you have most of your 16 gggrandparents?

When I started researching I didn't know the names of one of my grandparents and only knew the name of one great grandparents , now I know their names, and all their parents names and a few more generations back.................................
